Well, this is the final week of my class in which this blog is a requirement. I had to discuss on the discussion board what I had spoke about over the past several blogs. I have to admit, I don't think I did too bad on the blogs. It helped that I had a good blogging background before I started, though. I have taken a lot away from doing this blog. I know it will help get me out to the Information Security world and will do good for me in the future for applying for jobs. I can just point them to this blog, which hopefully can help me score some brownie points with them. Any future employers reading this right now, please take into consideration my previous blogs and how well I did discussing each topic and not what I just posted about brownie points :)
I feel that everyone should blog. Blog about anything that interests you. Blog about your personal life to your family. In fact, I recommend that topic to any newcomers to blogging. Just tell your family what is going on in your life. It makes it much easier to ease into other topics of blogging. Be open when blogging. Don't worry about your readers. Blogging allows you to get your opinion out there. I'm not saying to go out there and go off on a person to the point where you are wishing them to not be here. That is wrong. Go out there and just give your opinion.
When it comes to Information Security, I am not as advanced in the subject as many might think that I am, but I am getting there. The class that I am taking has opened my mind to many aspects of the topic that I was unaware of, but has also touched on topics that I have come to love in the past several years. I feel that everyone should be knowledgeable in Information Security if they have their own computer. You need to have the base knowledge so that you can help secure your computer and data from the outside world. I suggest that if you are not planning on entering the IT world to go out and find a book on IT security and read it from front to back. Get the know-how to secure your computer or you will regret it. Thanks to all of you who have read my blog. Look for future posts, though, I am unsure when I will post next.
