Loading ...Dan Swanson’s Security Resources: #9
There is an endless source of good resources to support your professional development. The intent of this column is to provide a diverse knowledge base to study from each week – (six items at a time). The two significant challenges many of us face is deciding what to study and where to find the time to do so.
This week’s top choice is Neal’s timeless article regarding learning from project to project; I recommend taking his suggestions to heart as it will quickly improve your results. The other five resources this week touch a variety of subjects, from DR project management to auditing.
Enjoy.
Good luck and have another great week.
