  • 00:00:00
    all right now let's take a look at the
  • 00:00:02
    certifications available a a student
  • 00:00:04
    asked me to go over this specifically
  • 00:00:07
    and there are two types of
  • 00:00:09
    certifications there are there is
  • 00:00:12
    proprietary and there's nonproprietary
  • 00:00:15
    actually even though this uh slide talks
  • 00:00:18
    about proprietary first let's talk about
  • 00:00:20
    why you would want nonproprietary
  • 00:00:22
    nonproprietary is almost like an
  • 00:00:26
    agnostic look at just the concepts
  • 00:00:29
    themselves so even though for example
  • 00:00:31
    CompTIA is a pretty powerful company and
  • 00:00:35
    they have a lot of say what goes you
  • 00:00:37
    know they have a say they put together
  • 00:00:40
    these certifications the A+ net plus
  • 00:00:42
    server plus and Linux plus it's it's a
  • 00:00:45
    little bit like how a university or a
  • 00:00:48
    program puts together a a course system
  • 00:00:52
    or a curricula based on course outcomes
  • 00:00:56
    so this course is is put together and
  • 00:01:00
    and the university has specific learning
  • 00:01:02
    outcomes that they expect this course to
  • 00:01:05
    have and that applies to all of your
  • 00:01:07
    courses throughout all the universities
  • 00:01:09
    in all the in all the curriculums and
  • 00:01:12
    it's supposed to you know a student that
  • 00:01:14
    goes to the entire program is supposed
  • 00:01:16
    to get a certain amount of exposure to
  • 00:01:20
    various things and of course they're
  • 00:01:21
    going to be adaptive throughout time as
  • 00:01:24
    time progresses and that is especially
  • 00:01:26
    true in uh in technology and computer
  • 00:01:29
    science science and and information
  • 00:01:31
    technology now I can't really say this
  • 00:01:33
    about let's say accounting because you
  • 00:01:36
    know um a equals uh L uh assets equals
  • 00:01:42
    uh uh or excuse me um how should I say
  • 00:01:46
    the ultimate accounting formula is
  • 00:01:50
    assets uh equals uh liability minus
  • 00:01:54
    expenses or whatever if that makes sense
  • 00:01:55
    and that's this has been the same uh as
  • 00:01:58
    it has gone through time however um when
  • 00:02:01
    it comes to technology you have the
  • 00:02:02
    onset of virtualization the onset of the
  • 00:02:06
    in in of the increased urgency of uh of
  • 00:02:10
    exploitation so you have more concerns
  • 00:02:12
    in cyber security and you have U the
  • 00:02:15
    onset of and as we go we'll talk about
  • 00:02:18
    in devices and Technologies the onset of
  • 00:02:21
    different types of devices that uh that
  • 00:02:23
    can connect to the internet like in The
  • 00:02:26
    Internet of Things iot devices you have
  • 00:02:29
    ipv six so it was wasn't too long ago
  • 00:02:32
    but whereas for example A+ or network
  • 00:02:35
    plus was still was only dealing with the
  • 00:02:37
    ipv4 and now IPv6 has reared its ugly
  • 00:02:41
    head and we and IPv6 is basically
  • 00:02:44
    everywhere now because we live in IPv6
  • 00:02:46
    world because of things like iot because
  • 00:02:49
    of like Wireless and that wasn't
  • 00:02:50
    necessarily there 20 years ago or even
  • 00:02:52
    10 years ago and so this information in
  • 00:02:55
    nonproprietary uh that you know CompTIA
  • 00:02:58
    produces is going to change over the
  • 00:03:00
    years so uh some of these you have to
  • 00:03:02
    understand that you take once and you're
  • 00:03:03
    going to have to take them again every 3
  • 00:03:05
    years uh so we have a plus net plus
  • 00:03:07
    server plus and Linux plus of these four
  • 00:03:10
    the ones that get the most respect are
  • 00:03:12
    probably the the two is server plus and
  • 00:03:14
    definitely Linux plus Linux plus is out
  • 00:03:17
    of these four probably the one that is
  • 00:03:20
    most quote unquote worth its salt we
  • 00:03:22
    have here the uh other non proprietary
  • 00:03:26
    well actually I had this is um in
  • 00:03:29
    nonproprietary actually this should be
  • 00:03:32
    shifted over here and because red hat is
  • 00:03:34
    very proprietary uh but here we have uh
  • 00:03:38
    Linux and you could say that they're
  • 00:03:40
    nonproprietary um but they're not the
  • 00:03:43
    reason why I would say that they're non
  • 00:03:45
    proprietary is that they industry
  • 00:03:47
    standard certificates but the these uh
  • 00:03:51
    this company okay let me go back here
  • 00:03:53
    and let me maybe may maybe little make
  • 00:03:56
    it a little bit uh bigger Linux
  • 00:03:58
    professional Institute really doesn't
  • 00:04:00
    sell anything other other than you know
  • 00:04:04
    they sell services and things like that
  • 00:04:06
    um whereas proprietary you have
  • 00:04:09
    Microsoft MTA Ms mcse msca Ms mcsd those
  • 00:04:16
    are all good certificates and then we
  • 00:04:18
    have Cisco which is definitely
  • 00:04:21
    proprietary because Cisco they are I
  • 00:04:24
    mean they're like the Microsoft of
  • 00:04:26
    network devices so Cisco's been buying
  • 00:04:29
    up you know you know um other companies
  • 00:04:31
    for the last 30 years and they become a
  • 00:04:34
    giant in the world of networking so I
  • 00:04:37
    suggest you just look these up on your
  • 00:04:39
    own and and you have an idea of where to
  • 00:04:42
    start now when it comes to devices and
  • 00:04:44
    Technologies that's going to be a
  • 00:04:46
    no-brainer because as I said nowadays
  • 00:04:48
    it's BYOD D bring your own device and
  • 00:04:51
    that is because now every device is
  • 00:04:54
    connected to the internet everything
  • 00:04:56
    from inanimate objects to traditional
  • 00:04:59
    device places that we wouldn't that we
  • 00:05:01
    would normally think uh we have tablets
  • 00:05:03
    we have PCS we have laptops and all
  • 00:05:06
    kinds of modalities but now vacuum
  • 00:05:08
    cleaners and the room Buzz all of those
  • 00:05:11
    are can connect to the Internet so you
  • 00:05:13
    just have to be much more careful so
  • 00:05:16
    this is the final slide of this week and
  • 00:05:19
    I just wanted to you know kind of
  • 00:05:21
    reinforce the idea is of the fact that
  • 00:05:24
    you have to be aware of all of these
  • 00:05:27
    areas storage networking security
  • 00:05:29
    Disaster Recovery admin Management areas
  • 00:05:32
    and you have to understand when it comes
  • 00:05:35
    to you know um when it comes to your job
  • 00:05:40
    you have to set an example that you have
  • 00:05:43
    to be in charge of you know maintaining
  • 00:05:46
    reliability and stability and ensuring
  • 00:05:49
    that your assets not only can be can be
  • 00:05:52
    available to those who need it but also
  • 00:05:55
    they need to be protected from those
  • 00:05:57
    that may exploit it and even advertently
  • 00:06:01
    may make your system vulnerable so one
  • 00:06:04
    area of profound change and remember
  • 00:06:08
    anything you do any change you do as a
  • 00:06:10
    system admin will can lead to profound
  • 00:06:14
    change by what by profound change what I
  • 00:06:17
    mean is it's going to be longlasting and
  • 00:06:21
    one way you can help you know um maybe
  • 00:06:25
    deploy your policy is having a great
  • 00:06:28
    training program
  • 00:06:30
    be because one security expert told me
  • 00:06:33
    once that you you know you could you can
  • 00:06:36
    eliminate 90% or 95 or even 99% of
  • 00:06:40
    exploitations if you do one of if you do
  • 00:06:44
    two things number one you prevent your
  • 00:06:47
    clients or your workers from downloading
  • 00:06:50
    errant attachments and number two USB
  • 00:06:54
    infection so people bring in their USBS
  • 00:06:56
    from home pluging into their work PC or
  • 00:06:58
    their laptop and infect the laptop so if
  • 00:07:01
    for example you were able to have a nice
  • 00:07:04
    have a good training program that that
  • 00:07:07
    that facilitated accountability and
  • 00:07:10
    facilitated you know continual
  • 00:07:12
    Improvement in those two areas then you
  • 00:07:15
    would basically have 95 to 90% 95% of
  • 00:07:20
    your in your stability problems lick
  • 00:07:23
    okay this is Jason Myers wanting to say
  • 00:07:26
    thank you and this week we did a lot of
  • 00:07:28
    things we had we had a couple
  • 00:07:30
    demonstrations and I hope you enjoyed
  • 00:07:32
    watching them and I hope you got
  • 00:07:34
    something out of it
