It's OK, you'll still get engineer manuals...
lol
Where are you blogging these days?
Not had time recent;y - But I have been doing a lot of similar writing up on Hacktivists and criminal gangs using online space to try and get rich.... Nothing changes in that the same principles in physical security apply online - path of least resistance still happens and common sense helps a lot. I will be writing more again soon though.

lol #palmface
Thanks for all the kind words guys - Again though, don't think badly of anyone enforcing a rule - I am happy to be non-trade as I am by definition now ex and rules is rules (Excepting Matt ofc
).I will be happy as long as I can still catch up with you guys from time to time and if you need to PM to ask a question instead of posting then that's fine by me.
Happy for any of you to have those details as I know you are all pucker.
As for the mortgage, of course I can help - Step into your nearest branch for a simple, personal and fair bit of advice
-
btw - You know these industries are going to converge eventually anyway right? Don't you guys read the blogs
-
Would be good to catch up again Adi - My number is still the same
Don't let the role change cause any arguments guys, I said previously I am happy to be non-trade given the changeover
I would still like to help answer any questions I can though based on previous experience so if there is a way to do that in an appropriate way then it would be good.

Hi Guys,
Been a while and I miss the banter with you lads.
Just thought i'd stop by and say the new role is going very well indeed - I'm now playing a key role in infosec with Santander and I am loving it. I've been able to get very involved at the deep end pretty quickly and have been working with other companies as well so there is a lot of variety in the role.
Working locally (Leicester) at London rates and with only very few trips to the capital.
I still keep my toe in the industry and have been doing some work on electronic security still - specifically on the software / networking side and I still keep up with the news. I miss the old trade but at the same time I would be lying if I didn't say that I have a new spring in my step and am getting paid now for what to me is a hobby I love.
If you have any questions then fire away and if I can ever help in my new sphere (or the old) then please give me a shout.'J -
yes
?
Your first 5 posts were a bit random gim

Nice one Paul

Those with Gold accreditation or seeking it should be putting pressure on the NSI to promote the value to the end users.
I take on board Matts point about the value issue. We can all either ignore it (note that this applies equally to SSAIB) or we can promote and educate and at the same time fine tune the process regarding tackling poor performance.
We can throw the lot on the scrap pile but let's be honest, what model would you replace it with that is better suited?

Ssaib platinum.
Now that would be a good laugh!
They should do that just for the lols -
The gold / silver debate is a tough one - Not to forget that some firms cannot be gold if they want to... For example if they are a one man band you can only acheive silver as you need at least two staff (including yourself) to get gold.
-
I appreciate the insight still. It just highlights the unquestioning way industry accepts statements and that we ought to be questioning them where established third party certification has not been carried out.
-
Oh yeah, much better in those days IMO lol
Must admit I'm guessing most companies use the same seed code.
Depends what the arc can support Aswell . - ours only supports certain scantronic rem reset seeds
The ARC can do any seed - they may need to pay to implement though if they don't know how to do db inserts

It wouldn't have been hard to make this secure at all. Actually, I think it would be less effort just using something ready made.
One of my many arguments for standardised protocols. Why reinvent the wheel? Especially when you make a round wheel square in the process.....
-
Agreed. If something has a weakness i want to know, then there are 2 options
1 discuss the issue and get a resolution.
2 if 1 doesn't work change product
Absolutely

It's invigorating to see products and applications looked at through a different lens and I am sure it intrigues CG to see what is out there.
Thanks, I guess?
lol

Good on you for the kind effort Driller - Top class

I agree for driving, Birmingham much more suited. All London accommodation seems way over normal rates, and if there are a few of you for 4/5 nights I can see how that won't be a welcome addition. A hour on the tube wouldn't bother me, I love the tube and the dlr.
I associate IFSEC and Birmingham together, not sure if it will feel like IFSEC in the big city. Agreed it will be the year aft it moves there when we see how many people visit that will indicate if it was such a good idea. Wonder what will be at the NEC in its place.
Clarion Events will be putting an event on for installers at the NEC in May 2014
-
I love how they used the move to justify lowering prices, they should lower them this year.
-
I'll be going to IFSEC this year

Thanks for the info Nexlar, though at the same time CSL & NSI among others are busy canvassing insurers to 'advise caution regarding the use of LPS1277'.
This is public not trade so I will not go into detail on the subjet
-
Thankfully I can assume that the pic above isn't a batch for return to CSL
As recommended already, talk to CSL they are a good team and will go out of their way to look after you.

Ahh sorry JW - Didn't want it in my sig as non-trade can then see it and it was for you guys to have before I disappear from trade
Will check my PMs now in case full, it might just be down to status flux (will go and reverse the polarity and see if it helps).
