Master Chef, what do you cook at home? (NOT OT!)

| Do a master chef's meal preparation practices and creativity carry over to his/her home cooking, or is s/he so glad to be free from the pressure of four-star dining that Shake and Bake and Campbell's Meals-in-minutes skillet dinners show up from time to time?
What about security professionals? Does your home network, and by extension your home itself, live up to the policies you have instituted and/or advocated to others for computer security at work?
I ask this based on personal experience. I wasn't sure whether to even "go here", but decided it might be instructive to do so, even if the answer in my case was "no" and I would look a bit silly as a result. You see, folks, my residence was the scene of an attempted breaking and entering/burglary a couple days ago. (Which I, security geek that I am, was able to foil. :-) And now, my loss of a few points on the public clue meter, is your gain.
The following link is a candid assessment of what went wrong and what went right -- the kind of post-mortem analysis that should occur after any security incident, with lessons learned, successes and areas for improvement noted. I did not include it here, because I wish to maintain copyright on the text, and the ExamNotes terms require that anything posted here be copyright ExamNotes.
Take a look and see what a mid-level chef has to say about dining at her house:

| I will have to admit to haveing a simular incident a few years ago abit embarraseing at the time but a leson well learned.
A most exellent presentaion and procedure.
You have touched upon some of the most common errors made in the security fileds of
any type.
It would amazse many people at how few companies have more than a token security
policy at all never mind whether it is fully implemented or monitored.
My compliments on this article | |
