An update to updating.

One of the things that I keep telling myself that I am going to accomplish, is to update this blog more frequently. It is not the fact that I am picking up people who actually read this thing, but I would like to document more often, trends and issues that I am currently experiencing at my employment. The obstacle that I have been currently facing and have been facing since day one, is to publish to a blog, while never attempting to speak negatively about another security professional or company. I have no problems trying to identify an issue within a specific security practice, protocol or organization, but I will not use this blog to self promote myself by slandering another "professional" or the actual product of a specific company.
The reason for this, I am still what I consider a young individual in this field. There is no way that I am going to cutoff or eliminate opportunities to meet, discuss, or debate with security related professionals or issues.
So, with that being said, I am going to try to update this blog more often. I will try to stick with my ultimate goal here and try to properly document experiences, trends, and issues that I have been facing during my current employment. Although I find it very difficult to hold my tongue every once in a while because someone out there is being absolutely stupid from a security standpoint, I will try my best to focus directly on the issue itself from the security point of view and try not to include the individual or companies product.

I feel that this is a vital aspect to being a Security Professional and slandering an individual or company is something that I will leave to the 12 year old hackers.
