7MS #271: Patching Solutions Bake-Off - Part 1

7MS #271: Patching Solutions Bake-Off - Part 1

Seems like every business I meet with needs some sort of help in the patching department. Maybe they've got the Microsoft OS side of the house under control, but the third-party stuff is lacking. Or vice-versa. Either way, the team I work with is excited to kick the tires of some popular patching solutions over the next few weeks, and we'll audibly barf up what we learn into this mini-series!

Solutions we'll poke around with include:

PS: None of these solutions are sponsoring 7MS. They're just popular patching solutions we're trying out to learn more about 'em and give you the pros/cons we discover!

In today's episode I dive a bit into...

Ninite Pros
  • Cheap
  • Does one thing, and does it well
  • Been around for a long time
  • Cloud-based - doesn't rely on LAN-side server
Cons
  • Only cloud-based...no LAN-side option
  • Requires an agent
  • Agent's only purpose is patching - no extra bells/whistles like remote control or inventorying capability

7MS #141: Happy (Belated) New Year!

Happy (belated) new year! This episode is more of a "What am I listening to, a PBS telethon?!" kind of thing, and I'm sorry for that. But I want to cover: * Scheduling changes for 2016 - we're gonna be 3 times a week! * A new documentation project I'm working on called BPATTY (Brian's Pentesting and Technical Tips for You) * A way you can support the podcast financially.

7MS #139: Securing Your Life - Part 2

Back in episode #93 I talked about securing your life - in other words, asking yourself "What would happen if I was dead right now? Do I have adequate insurance? Are my finances in order? How about estate planning?" This episode continues that train of thought, and I share some new changes I've made in my "life security" department.

Looks like I'm one of the few people in the world who did NOT love this movie. I found it painful slow and claustrophobic. #diappointed.

7MS #136: Python for Newbs

7MS #136: Python for Newbs

One skill that's been kind of a hinderance in my IT/security career is I have exactly zero experience in programming/coding. Zero. Zip. Nil. Nada. Nothing.. But I'm trying to remedy that in 2016 by learnin' me some Python, and I picked up a great book called Python Crash Course, which has been exactly what this newb needed. At the time of publishing, you can get 30% off with the coupon code CRASHCOURSE!
