    Who has two thumbs and gets to fully document our implementation of Zero Trust Architecture? This guy.

    Anyone else hunting for resources and finding them slim? I have the SP-800 207, and some other stuff that makes control documentation extremely helpful.

    not sure if anyone else took notice today from the GPU news out there, but huge price drops in both nvidia and amd GPUs today. picked up a 6900xt that'll be $790 after $50 mail-in rebate.

    I've noticed the prices dropping on my regular Newegg spam emails. Some have been signficant enough to make note of.

    Wonder if there is any correlation between GPU prices falling and crypto prices being in the tank?

    definitely part of it. worked to increase supply, then bottom fell out and lots of folks dropped GPU mining. add in current monetary situation and less money to spend on "extras" so more sitting on shelves longer.

    also needing to clear out cards before 4000 series drop.

    Is this a place to chat about home-ish networks? I'm refreshing our WiFi with a TP-Link Omada setup and have been gabbing about it in the 60's thread, where I mostly get a bunch of blank stares in return.

    Why not? We can at least confuse you further.

    Confuse away! I'm almost finished with it now -- the outdoor AP has yet to arrive, but I did run the wiring so it's ready whenever I get it. I added up everything I've spent on hardware and, to my surprise, it comes in hundreds of dollars LESS than a 4-unit consumer grade mesh WiFi system. I get PoE, full ethernet backhaul, a pretty wide choice of AP's, central control -- what's not to love.

    EDIT: Come to think of it, the WiFi side of things comes in WAY LESS than a consumer rig, because that price includes the TP-Link WAN gateway which gives me multi-WAN capabilities and a bunch of other cool trickery.

    Here's a link to an album with some words and pictures, if anyone's interested. https://photos.app.goo.gl/hshqt1Cp3nFKXf7D8

    What am I being forced into?

    Looks like a management suite for local/regional computing resources.

    We're getting massive latency problems with outlying locations getting to cloud systems, and this looks to fix that.

    Just got off a call with them and our infrastructure group - this ties in seamlessly with our existing cloud architecture.

    Pretty slick...

    I'm impressed if for no other reason than this comes from someone who's as skeptical of all-cloud-all-the-time as I am.

    I just soured.

    "Where is the scanning done? Am I just supposed to let this traffic come into my network without going through my boundary protection suites?"

    We've had similar discussions with traffic for programs under your agency and my agency.

    My chief of boundary protection has some choice words for the chief of cloud applications.

    It's getting good.
