I have been asked to develop and deliver a two day training seminar on BigData and Information Security at the ISC2 world security congress this coming September.
In addition to being a paying gig, it's a not insignificant honor, and bit of professional recognition...
It should be fun, and interesting. I love developing and delivering training to motivated professionals.
...Now I need to renew my CISSP...
I let it lapse while I was no longer actively consulting a few years back. It's been long enough I have to start over. That said, it's far less of a pain today than when I first got it back in.... I don't remember exactly.... 1999? 2000? Something like that.
