How'd you make the jump to security? It's always been a hobby of mine, and
something that I have had to deal with a lot more here. Part of my duties
here are to sit on the DS Admin CERT, and to do analytical work on threat
and risk information. I took a CISSP prep course at George Washington, but
then didn't really have the time to pursue it after the course was over.
Also how did you go about going to school? Between work, the military and
the kids it doesn't feel like I would have any time to fit in, and I am
pretty impatient, would hate to wait 8 or 10 years for a degree.
Any suggestions?

Hey Guy!!
I'm totally out of the CF stuff now...moved onto
computer security. But I drink my coffee out of a mug
of yours that I've had for the last few years. Good
luck in school..a good move. Getting my degree did
great things for me career-wise.
