About this blog

This is not your normal information security blog. This blog is where I vent and struggle against the standards of infosec orthodoxy (wow - I can't even believe there is such a thing). If you're looking for a place to just get the standard security professional line on everything then this is not the place for you. This is a place to read the opinions (and I have many) of someone who often disagrees with standard conventions and isn't afraid to say so.
