Indeed. Adobe does that. We went looking for photoshop for my wife and her new Mac. It was about $1000. You could get it from the cloud for a monthly fee with an annual commitment.

RE: Personal IT Blog?
Sure. I started one mainly to keep track of things which fall out of my brain or weird issues somebody else might also have. The hard part is just to get it going. The more you do it; the easier it gets. Also, don’t get discouraged if you don’t have hits. They do happen. Especially, if you write about things which are hot. Obviously, there are company issues to be concerned about. Might not hurt to see if they have a policy about information sharing….

RE: Death of the Desktops?
Well? Desktop to me is just that; a desktop machine such as the Dell Precession. For software engineers (at least in EDA); I don't see the tablets replacing them as they lack the power and ram these guys need. We looked at VDI and basically what we were going to save in desktop/laptop costs would be spent on the infrastructure. In some cases; it would cost more. However, I could see the tablets and the cloud replacing the need for laptops. People seem to prefer them due to the weight and the angry birds factor.

Make sure that you note when your CRL expires, so that you can bring up your root CA in time to generate a new one.

Our needs are for Lync, maybe some certs for some smart phones and some internal software we’ve written so it’s not a complicated system from our perspective. At least not for the short term. I obviously don’t want to do something that I’ll regret later and was looking for some advice from other who have traveled these roads and learned what to do, and what not to do. From my research, I think a two tier system will work but I’m not real clear at this point how you have an offline CA (for security purposes) and subordinate CA’s to hand our certs. Still reading up on all that. Am I overthinking all this as my Lync installer suggests? He said that I should just install the certificate role on a DC and that would be that. I think they might be better at installing and configuring Lync than they are at designing certificate authorities as my research indicates doing that is not the best way to go. Can anyone share their experiences as time is short and I need to decide what CA to stand up. Any advice would be appreciated.

Uh, yeah they are, if they're not stored in a secure place. Sticky notes, by design, are meant to be placed somewhere convenient to the user, which, to me, suggests somewhere out in the open. That's completely different from a sheet of paper containing some common passwords necessary to certain functions being in a locked file cabinet, with a limited set of users of said file cabinet having keys. So writing passwords down isn't necessarily bad, based on where the data is actually stored and how it is secured. Writing on a sticky note suggests that the data isn't well secured, and that storage is accessible to someone who can easily see the contents of your work area. Do you have external cleaning staff? Or heck, even internal after hours cleaning staff? How can you be sure that the password hasn't been used by them?

Security managers have long regarded passphrases as an easy-to-remember way to pack dozens of characters into the string that must be entered to access online accounts or to unlock private encryption keys. The more characters, the thinking goes, the harder it is for attackers to guess or otherwise crack the code, since there are orders of magnitude more possible combinations. But a pair of computer scientists from Cambridge University has found that a significant percentage of passphrases used in a real-world scenario were easy to guess. Using a dictionary containing 20,656 phrases of movie titles, sports team names, and other proper nouns, they were able to find about 8,000 passphrases chosen by users of Amazon's now-defunct PayPhrase system. That's an estimated 1.13 percent of the available accounts. The promise of passphrases' increased entropy, it seems, was undone by many users' tendency to pick phrases that are staples of the everyday lexicon. Our results suggest that users aren't able to choose phrases made of completely random words, but are influenced by the probability of a phrase occurring in natural language, researchers Joseph Bonneau and Ekaterina Shutova wrote in the paper (PDF), which is titled Linguistic properties of multi-word passphrases.

RE: list delays
Oh it's not that bad. It's not like there are people here waiting to pounce on any stupid or lazy questions. Most of the time they are ignored or simply giving enough information to people on their way. Even with a perceived lazy stupid question, I have seen the tones change once it's understood the person is genuinely lost. Or once in my case an attacker changed tones when he learned I had been up for 29 hours. Some might argue we have a couple vulgarians but this is not a work environment. You have to look past the profanity and see what is being said. As to unprofessional? That definition varies and even then this is an information source on the Internet. It's not a place of business.

A good practice to get into is the creation of technical requirement matrices and business requirement matrices. It helps you put on paper what capabilities you need in a solution and gives the vendor a uniform method of informing you of the strengths and weaknesses of their platform. We typically tier our requirements into 3 categories that allows us to weigh the importance of features. For example, a tier 1 requirement might be that the solution support fiber channel or iscsi where a tier 2 or 3 requirement might be support for sub-lun tiering or a 64bit OS to leverage larger cache. This is EMC for crying out loud - arguably the leader in the field, and it's a software issue. We're not talking about going with lesser hardware, which can steeply influence the costs. As well, I was given to understand that this is a relatively new line for them. They have the software in hand, and my 4 year old Lefthands don't have this limitation. I do place this 99% on them (split in some fashion between EMC and the reseller). I'll hand the 1% to my manager, who had used them before, doesn't like the Lefthands, and trusted the reseller rep he's worked with at his prior company. I was given no say in the matter - I suggested another LH unit. It may be too little too late but I'd be happy to share the template we used for our last storage purchase.

RE: Apple newbie - iPad remote access to server shares
A short and simple example is the question of company provided versus bring your own If you allow the users to provide their own, you have no control over what they put on them or bring into your network. Keep in mind this my lack of caffeine scraggily memory but there was a recent event of an attack via PDF. There are solutions such as in my case you can isolate them by giving them their own network and use citrix to grant them access to stuff. What about company confidential files? iPad gets stolen. They are very useful tools but if somebody says just give them wireless access you could very well regret that. -Original Message- From: Terry Dickson [mailto:te...@treasurer.state.ks.us] Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2011 11:12 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Apple newbie - iPad remote access to server shares What about the point I might have missed in this discussion on Security.

When you finish a major project and there's nothing specific on the horizon, what sort of things do you do to improve the services that you offer your customers? I'm conscious of how I word this as I certainly don't want to come across as complacent or as if there isn't a constant trickle of things to be getting on with, but some things can't be done simply due to money (upgrade entire business to Windows 7 Office 2010 isn't going to happen) you can reach a point where, until the next bunch of patches and updates come along, the SAN works, vSphere works, Windows works, plus there are limits on what you can do in working hours due to impact. I can always find a stream of things to do such as researching future replacement hardware/software but I'm interested in the things you do to improve the services you offer the business and your users/customers. I've probably not worded that fantastically, but hopefully you get the idea.
