Thank you for sharing your experience. Needless to say, everyone's experience will be different, but, especially for security work, it is important to think about core factors in implementation: policy and psychology. If you are not as

I have nothing more to add than up-vote this and parent comment. Execs don't get bonuses nor career tracks through good security. And it's hard to make a career or professional friends in the org by telling people they are doing t

Seconded! A double panel file manager is a very convenient concept, strongly suggest those that have not tried it do so! I mostly use the core feature of organizing files such as downloads, moving from one folder to another; sorting by size

He is a marketer and self-promoter to the core. With above, he continues his tradition of pushing his self-interest. No surprise he sees the role of journalism in that direction. If objectivity and a fair point of view is impossible, self-i

See my parent comment. One of the agreements we arrived at was not to have non-product-facing teams. The teams also decided on how and who would be allocated to the tasks that could be placed as similar to what you describe.
