Ever wonder what your assessor is really thinking? Here you will be offered a rare glance into the mind of one such assessor. Journey through the laughter, the tears, the frustrations, the burying of bodies, and hiding of evidence.
Michelle K. has been performing information security assessments for over 5 years using various standards such as: NIST, HIPAA, ISO17799:27002, & PCI DSS. Currently, Michelle provides information security services for clients looking for advice and strategies for securing their environment. She is also the president of the Dallas NAISG Chapter (http://dallas.naisg.org/Default.asp) and coordinates an annual information security conference (BSidesDFW 2011) for the DFW area.
Disclaimer: I do not speak for all infosec assessors, neither good nor bad. These are my own thoughts based on my own experiences.
