seeing dcode differnces and reviewing code
by Chamandeep Singh Grover 21 Jan '19

Hi All, We have recently migrated over to git and using bitbucket. I am using Jaws with Eclipse at the moment as my ide. I wanted to ask for peoples' advice on carrying out code reviews and seeing the differences between code versions. I am happy to try out a new ide such as visual studio code if it has worked well for some people, but it is quite difficult at the moment to understand the changes. Previously when using SVN, I had this linked up with code compare, which worked some what to alert changes. Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thank you Chamandeep Singh Grover

Has anyone had recent experience with PFSense? The last time I used it was about six years ago and the version at that time was not usable. Prior to that it was usable. Thanks

DoD 8570 Security Certs
by matt.bsa＠wh1t3.net 19 Jan '19

I have a need to get baseline certified for DoD 8570. Initially, I was thinking about doing the CompTIA Security Plus-it is quick, cheap, etc. The CISSP would get me level 3 certified though and has better long-term viability. I would like to hear anyone's experiences studying for and then taking the tests for either of these certifications. Thank you, Matt

Hi, We are using TrendMicro OfficeScan at the moment. The client is mostly accessible though you have to do some workarounds. The management console running on the server using a web interface isn't.

Hi, I have experience with mainly Sophos (both on the old server product and the cloud manager). I didn't realise they were discontinuing the server product altogether. The cloud manager is usable with speech and has a good API to. At work we have switched to a corporate version of Windows Defender from Symantec.
