It wasn't an article i wrote though.. it was an interview (so it's actually an article written by a journalist) Note the direct quote reads: "“We are in pretty bad shape considering that some of us have actually been trying and investing in security for the better part of a decade." Thats not saying "vendors need to change" its saying we all do.. I'm not pointing the finger at a single area (there is enough blame to go around). I'm simply saying that what we are currently doing isn't working, and this needs to be said :> Hi @lactichaze

Only other advice I can give is to have hot soup in the car. Really helps for the last part of the ride! Best is to get a coach, and do a lot of riding.

Sometimes it's difficult to find out about jobs without having to work through fleshmongers, so they are unfortunately the first contact ;( No, it wasn’t, but I tend to agree…except that OBE was a failure as well, and that wasn’t a product of the apartheid regime.
