    Becoming a Computer Security Analyst

    I see SANS/GIAC all the time. It really is for "practitioners"; the people who are going to be doing the actual IR/forensics/analysis side of work. These certs (and the training that goes with them) will teach you the things you need to know to be effective at IR/security analysis/etc. As...

    Want a new phone v. Verizon

    Be wary of that deal. It's only offered to people who sign up for Verizon Max (pay monthly for your phone and upgrade sooner) which is a huge ripoff.

    Packet Capture Analysis

    Definitely use Wireshark. The most useful feature to me when I'm analyzing pcap (which I do all day, every day) is the Follow TCP Stream feature. When you find HTTP/SSL/FTP/anything running on TCP, right click and hit "Follow TCP Stream". This will show you all of the payloads from packets in...

    Atom Windows 8 Tablet

    I use a Ativ Smart PC (500T) and for day to day productivity work it's great. I typically have Chrome with 5-10 tabs open and then either OneNote, Word or PowerPoint depending on what I'm doing with no slow downs what so ever. Really the limiting factor of the Clover Trail devices is disk I/O...

    Tough Windows 8 Tablet with LTE

    This is pretty much your only option: http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:category.details?current-catalog-id=12F0696583E04D86B9B79B0FEC01C087&current-category-id=1DB5DB42BB243AD4B9D55F987471F010&menu-id=products&ref-id=products I don't know...

    Question for Surface Pro Owners

    Do you or did you ever have a Samsung device? If you already downloaded it on a Samsung device, it may be attached to your account so you can re-download it anywhere. I'm not sure. As for inking, OneNote is widely considered to be the best program out there. The desktop app is part of the...

    Question for Surface Pro Owners

    I don't think you can download S Note. There are manufacturer specific sections of the Marketplace that only appear when you open it with one of their devices.

    Helix on Ebay, how come?

    Look at the shipping date (it's in April). You're not actually going to get it until Lenovo officially releases it; the seller is just hoping to sucker someone into overpaying.

    Want to build a VM lab environment, but use it also as a home PC

    So basically what you want to do is have a Windows PC for gaming and what not but also be able to experiment with ESXi/Xen/etc? You can definitely do that with VMWare Workstation, among others. You can run ESXi as a virtual machine and then run VMs on that ESXi VM as well. That, in fact, is...

    Acer Iconia W700 club :D

    Not all Windows 8 tablets can use a "proper" stylus like the ones you linked to. The W700 for example, doesn't have the correct digitizer. There is allegedly a version (W700P) that does, but I don't think it's out yet. All of the tablets can use capacitive styli like what you would use with...

    Whos buying a a W8 Tablet?

    If you hit Win+P (or use the device charm) you can set it to second screen only which turns the main display off. As for the image getting cut off, that is a setting on your TV. It is overscanning the image and not fitting it properly. Fiddle with your TV settings and you should be able to...

    Rumors of Surface tablet successors and specs appear

    Yeah I don't believe any of these. MS waxed poetically about how perfect the 10.6" size is for the Surface. I don't see them going any smaller or any larger.
