I am my own master yet I feel I hardly know myself.
I am my own keeper yet I'm hard to contain.

Took last month off to recharge and ended up playing Fire Emblem: Three Houses—a fun break! Continued my Google interviews; didn’t get the role but learned a ton. Now focusing on Linux with plans to take the LPIC-1 exam soon. Excited for what’s next in my cybersecurity journey!

Cheers,
Craig

• Update your devices to the newest OS versions ASAP (iOS 18.4+, macOS Sonoma 14.7.5+)
• Disable “Anyone on the same network” setting in AirPlay if possible
• Use VPNs when on public Wi-Fi networks
