When I first started my #MSISE, this class was one of the top 2 I was most excited about, and it didn’t disappoint (though I wanted it to go deeper in a few areas and honestly book 3 and book 5 could make for their own great full courses). Ready to write the exam tomorrow morning, and feeling very good about it. This course more closely relates to the work I do every day than almost any other I’ve taken, which made a lot of the material easy to dive into. Scored very well on my practice exam, and feeling ready!
Nothing quite as satisfying as a well ordered index and prep materials the night before the test :)

Since I started my #MSISE with SANS, I have taken some GREAT classes and learned so much, but THIS class is one of the top two I’ve been looking forward to the most (the other being FOR610/GREM planned for this summer)!
I am so excited to get started on #FOR508 - Advanced #IncidentResponse, #ThreatHunting, and #DigitalForensics- and prepare for my #GCFA this Spring!
Since Thanksgiving, I’ve also been working my way through a backlog of technical books I have, occasionally reference, but never dove into completely. I’m remedying that this year and made a promise to myself to sit down and read/work through my bookshelf. I can say that I’m already seeing the benefits of that effort, unlocking a few “a ha!” moments and further helping me refine my future professional plans.
When I took my first security class years ago, I immediately fell in love with the field. I knew I needed to do this with my career. I have found that feeling again in the last quarter as I spend more time studying #memoryanalysis and #reverseengineering. I took a really nontraditional path into these disciplines, and I have a lot of gaps in knowledge I’m constantly filling in, but I *love* learning this stuff.
Over 2/3 of the way through my masters…. The academic end is in sight, but the learning opportunities are infinite :)
