Most people are taught to micromanage now days.. There are plenty of business colleges, online articles and business training teaching that micromanagement is underrated and is actually a good thing for the business

I've never seen that. All of the business training that I've seen and had, from books to university, was that micromanagement means you've totally failed as a manager and have left your manager role and are actually the worker and should either simply be moved into the worker role or removed as a manager. Micromanagement literally was taught as "failed management" by definition.

well a lot of people go to online college now. strayer, phoenix all teach things like this.

@Jason This would be at the federal level as two people from different nations are involved.

Not sure where you get that. You live in the state laws still apply. Just like when you buy stuff online you have to pay the taxes not collected by the merchant to your state at the end of the year.

I fucking wish we could get pricing like that in Canada.

Have a buddy buy it for you and hand ship it up.

border agent: That's a nice server you got there.... be a shame if you had to... pay taxes on it! muahahahaha

Nothing to claim, a buddy gave me this equipment from his personal lab.

"In general, the goods you include in your personal exemption must be for your personal or household use. These goods include souvenirs, gifts that you received from friends or relatives living outside Canada or prizes that you won."

Canada customs gives no fucks about gifts, only charging taxes on everything

Even in the US you pay gift taxes, they are actually higher near 50% tax rate, unless it is a gift to a spouse or political party.

Yeah the gift tax doesn't start until a value close to 6 Million US. as of 2015.

So you'd be more than in the clear.

That's Federal.. Almost every state has gift tax as well. Also that is the lifetime limit meaning that if you give over 5million you always are taxed, you are still taxed federallly under 5 million if you go over the annual limit which is much much lower.

Looks nice. Can either this or phpiam do email alerts? I'm not seeing that in the demos.

Out of curiosity, are we filtering for red devices (rouge) or things that don't belong (rogue)?

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Fixed it.

web interface seems to be okay for Lan Marshal, Nmap is installed but doesn't seem to be running (and there for not scanning). Not sure if there is something else I need to do or what.

Are you looking for rogue APs, or devices that are connected to your network that shouldn't be?

Just devices on the network.

@Doughnut said in Be careful who you do business with:

Also whomever mentioned me "having career problems". This is also entirely inaccurate. I CHOSE to leave IT and take a break from technology. I then CHOSE to work for a drone company because I felt it was a good opportunity to make a difference in the world with what we were doing, I then CHOSE to go back to IT because I actually missed it. I haven't had any "career trouble".

Sorry wasn't trying to imply anything just knew you didn't like what was going on at the last company (the hosting company I believe it was).

When I had an Android, I loved modding and custom ROMs--this brought me back!

Yep that is me, too. Every month or two I wipe my phone and start over. It seems like every time I start from scratch I build something better for productivity. I really like this smart launcher. It has definitely increased productivity as I don't find myself searching for apps like before.

I used to on low end phones but I don't see me doing that on Nexus devices cause it's vanilla android. the rom's I usually did to get rid of the sluggishness from the stock customized junk.

I'm curious to see what the new Nexus is going to look like, and how expensive it's going to be. I really wish I was on Android for my main phone.

I couldn't be on an iphone for personal use. Too restrictive for me.

Company phone. I can't take my personal one into work.

From a corporate perspective I definitely understand the iOS being preferred for mobile devices. More restrictvie by nature and not as easy to find backdoors, install malicious apps, etc.

Oh yeah I love the sandboxed nature of it for that.. Hate it for connivance personally. I used it for years but got tired of it. I can just not install crazy apps using it myself.

I was on an phone 6 until last week I switched (anyone want to buy an iphone 6??)

Actually I might be interested for my mother in law if it is verizon.

It's AT&T

I'm using Nexus 6p with Android 7.0 here. Hoping they fix the BLE bugs, and the issue with Cisco Jabber.

Dang crazy. He used to be one of the good ones. I do know he had some career struggles as of late though.

I am curious to why a fortune 100 company would want to use OpenSource. Of course there is nothing wrong with OpenSource, but that is generally not behavior from a large corp.

Actually it's the default option generally if we can.

If you are talking about devices on the network,.. isolate by the MAC address - Rouge devices would not matter then as they would not be allowed resources.

Spoofing a MAC is soooo easy.

that may be,.. however will a 'general user' know how to perform this?

We are a fortune 100, we get intentional attacks daily.

@IRJ said in OpenSource or free rouge device detection:

Do you have a IDS? Most of them can do this.

IPS on Palo Alto but I don't think the edge devices detect internal devices connected to the network. We used to use Manage Engine stuff but are moving away from them.
