Dev and Security Walkthroughs

Time I studied two hours everyday for two weeks. I took Cisco 1 - 2 classes at Lakeland Community College. Materials 1. Boson Practice Exam 2. Cisco Labs 3. Cisco ICND1 Syllabus 4. Youtube Positives Studying for the CCENT filled gaps in my knowledge base. I was doing switchport modes wrong. I know end-devices are switchport mode access now. I figured out how to calculate wildcard submasks. All I knew how to do was 0.0.0.255. I didn't know what full or half duplex was. My subnetting skills were rocky.

I saved those three devices first while abandoning everything else. Adam changed the default passwords on the end devices and that was it. We were a Services and Injects team only. We had no time for incident reports. No time for IoT. No time to secure anything good enough. No time to monitor the hackers. I did customer calls. We passed around the audit packet like a hot potato. We were killing it on Services. We were doing great on Injects too. Its all that Extra stuff that got to us. We weren't over-capacitated in the realm we created but in everything we abandoned. The whole idea about throwing the end-devices overboar...
