I set up Netbox recently at work to try and improve the abysmal documentation situation. I use an Ansible playbook to provision and set up the server, then copy a docker compose file and start the containers. So far I'm loving Netbox, I just wish my predecessors had documented things from the start.
I recently set up and started using MediaTracker for this purpose. It's kind of barebones, but functional. Seems like its biggest difference with movary is that it also covers TV, ebooks, audiobooks, and games.
I have a little section for movies and books on my website and i've been working on a script to automatically pull those lists and reviews from MediaTrackers api each time I build my site.
Thanks! This is actually exactly what I have been basing my efforts on so far, it's just sobering to look at how far away we are from completing implementation group 1.
I just started my first official cybersecurity position at a medium size company in an industry that is currently being heavily targeted with ransomware.
I'm starting pretty much from scratch as they have not had a dedicated security role in over a year and my predecessor didn't make much progress. So far i've been focused on inventory lists, policies, and procedures for hardware, software, and data. I think we're doing okay with minimizing stuff thats internet facing and patching is in a good place (well, at least with the devices and os's that are still supported).
Any suggestions on where to go from there or what to prioritize?
I'm studying for CCSP right now. It's fairly general and tries to be vendor neutral but Architecture is one of the knowledge domains on the exam. Might be worth it if you meet the work requirements or experience waiver requirements.
A lot of people also seem to conflate it with the CISSP when it comes up in conversation I've noticed.
Kagi! Worth every penny of the subscription. The emphasis on privacy is a big deal for me but the killer feature is the ability to customize results. I have sites I personally like/trust towards the top and have an ever growing blacklist of sites that don't get shown at all. No more pinterest, spruce, or other seo spam sites!
If you're looking at paying for certs I personally would stick with ones from common organizations, like CompTIA, (ISC)^2, SANS, Cisco, etc. I think a lot of the value in the cert (at least for career purposes) comes from the name recognition and trust placed in the organization certifying you. A recruiter looks at a Sec+ credential and knows exactly what that entails, whereas a certification from a lesser known organization or community college doesn't do much to tell them what you know or have studied.
I love this solution, I've been using it for years. I had previously just been using the home directory is a git repo approach, and it never quite felt natural to me and came with quite a few annoyances. Adding stow to the mix was exactly what I needed.
Hey, I have a career question this week! I've been a sysadmin for the last 1.5 years (It's a small shop so everything security related is currently my responsibility). I'll soon be graduating with a BS in Cybersecurity & Information Assurance. I'm SSCP, CySA+, and PenTest+ certified. I want to end up in a penetration testing role. Once I graduate, should I start looking for pen testing gigs immediately or do you think I ought to get some experience directly in the security industry first? Would getting OSCP help my chances of moving directly to pen testing?
A vertical mouse saved me from carpal tunnel syndrome. A few years ago I started developing wrist and elbow pain in my mouse arm along with the numbness. It was getting so bad I would take frequent breaks to ice my wrist and would wear a brace at night. I started looking for ergonomic mice and decided to try out a $15 Anker one from Amazon. I felt relief the day I started using it and within a few days the symptoms were gone entirely.
For managing my library on disk, I just recently made the effort to set up the *arr apps. I love having the metadata, tagging, organizing, and file naming all consistent and automated. Previously I used mp3tag and filebot to manage them and it was way more manual. Everything is set up with docker-compose and Ansible.
Library file stuff:
Two Radarr instances, one for 4k and another for lower resolutions
Sonarr for TV
Lidarr for music
Two readarr instances, one for epub/pdf and one for audiobooks
Jackett
deluge+openVPN
For library frontend stuff:
Jellyfin for movies, tv, music, audiobooks
Plex, for when Jellyfin is acting up
Jellyseer for TV & movie requests
LaunchBox for videogames and emulators
Calibre + calibreWeb for ebooks & syncing to my Kobo eReader
Haven't set up yet:
flaresolverr
unpackerr
audiobookshelf
Doesn't exist yet/wishlist:
*arr app for emulator ROMs (I'll have to check out romm, looks pretty cool!)
