Good Cybersecurity is a lot like Ogres. It needs to be made up of layers. And like slices of swiss cheese, not each layer is perfect. End user awareness training is still important. At one point in time everyone didn’t know how to type, let

Trailers in trailer parks in my rural census designated micropolitan statistical area of Ohio go for 60k at the minimum so there certainly is a lot of modern amenities you would have to accept to live without in the house described in the a

They suggested working part time at a gas station or seasonally somewhere else which is incredible. I have had to travel across the country multiple times to “live where the jobs are” so I find it hard to believe that the whole time I could
