Security Unfiltered Podcast Appearance
SUPER-proud to have been a guest on the Security Unfiltered Podcast! Joseph South and Derrick Jackson are just phenomenal hosts, and made me feel very welcome and let me blather about all sorts of security-related stuff. We had a fantastic conversation that could have gone on for at least another three hours without pause, if we all had the time. Thanks again, gentlemen!

Recent CCSP Exam Feedback
One of my former students, Mark Landes, shared this with me today. Mark reminds us of the purpose and use of practice questions: not to learn the material, but to prepare for how to deal with questions about the topics. Thanks, Mark, and congratulations!
”Hi Ben. I was in the CCSP boot camp with ISC2 conference last November. Just wanted to let you know I passed the certification exam in December and got the confirmation of award in late January. Your class and books (study guide and practice exams) were a great help. There were not a lot of direct ‘book questions’ from either, but rather a lot of questions applying the cloud models and technologies the books taught. The practice of answering all those sample questions really helped prepare from a psychological perspective. Thanks again!”
