Updates
So, now that I’ve gotten my first paycheck, it’s safe to say that I have a new job 
February 1st was my first day as a (no kidding) Cyber Security Analyst. I’m working for Jefferson Science Associates at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (also know as JLAB). So far, it appears I’ll be focusing mostly on IDS management and security tool development (case tracking, etc). JLAB is definitely a different working environment than what I had grown used to at NPS. Everything here is much more laid back and relaxed feeling, but also much more isolated. I’ve gone a few days without even seeing another person, let alone talking to them. It’s quite a contrast from the nearly-open room environment I came from, where everyone could overhear everything going around them!
On the FIRST front, tonite/tomorrow is the contest at VCU in Richmond, VA. I’ll hopefully be attending tomorrow morning to watch the final round of regular competition, as well as the tournament at the end. It will be interesting to see how our robot does - Dr. Skena sounded positive, especially regarding our ramp configuration. We’ll see - I’ll be sure to post results as soon as I find out, as well as pictures of the event and the construction process.
