Running a 'social media cleanup' analysis of my twitter feed out of curiosity (likes, retweets,etc)...it's clear a 'I work in IT/information security' threshold will need to be added for this to be useful, we are a hilariously profane industry.

What's the internal equivalent? Deciding ahead of time that in the first 90 days of implementing a new type of security monitoring (where you really don't know the baseline for 'bad' yet), that no problems identified will result in a drastic consequence like termination?

Contractually acknowledging that people in an org will fail some aspect of a physical or virtual third party offensive security test, and requiring that they can't be disciplined as a result, is an interesting idea (I've heard it before, and @tarah raised it again in her talk).

Listening to @CircuitSwan's fairly practical advice on the benefits of knowledge breadth and outside context in any profession, and specifically how to apply that to security. Has just the right amount of profanity sprinkled in for a Friday night. #ShmooCon

Responding "no, you're wrong, there's people I know looking for a job" is about as superficial as one can get in a response.

The 'talent' shortage' debate in security has to move beyond anecdotal 'how it feels'. Enterprise security managers saying 'there's not enough people to do all that is expected' is a fairly reasonable perception, let the debate start there (budget, job reqs, culture, job design).

"I've never been qualified for any job I've ever had." - @Krenner (for context, that's a joke about being qualified on paper for a job description), listening to the #ShmooCon Firetalks: https://t.co/ETKji7lrKf

30 min mark, State Sponsored Podcast: @krypt3ia makes an interesting point about attention seeking behavior, progression due to the number of security cons and 'what's been done before', and possible negative outcomes of constant envelope pushing. https://t.co/N9iFPNQMcT

There's a number of established in their job security folks who are newer to Twitter, socmed, or 'the community', who have experiential based perspectives to share. Meeting their fledgling steps with snark and toxicity instead of constructive disagreement is a missed opportunity.

Note if you will, a thread as rare as a black swan or purple unicorn: an educational interaction around an information security topic on social media, that produced a positive outcome: https://t.co/N55HsQfsIS

I'm switching to using e-mail addresses, passwords and other account details that are derogatory to @troyhunt. That way when he has to load them up to @haveibeenpwned after they've been breached his own creation is mocking him.

The articles overall point, about affordable housing and the service economy, seems both valid and interesting from multiple perspectives. Some of the other arguments didn't resonate as much from my, once BOH, perspective. https://t.co/TyvK7secdo
