With this new community, I figured it would be interesting to get a gauge on if there are any security professionals within the community, and what roles everyone holds?

I personally specialize in GRC, but have also worked in network engineering in the past.

Wait… these stupid IT security tests are now following me onto lemmy? The really obvious trying to be funny fake security emails are bad enough at work!

Oops! You clicked on a simulated phishing test.

It’s surprising how many people still fall for those tests.

I was tired one morning and fell for one :(

It happens. Better to fall for a fake one.

I remember back in 2000 or 2001 sitting at my desk and all of sudden my work e-mail client started going nuts with notifications filling with random emails. That was followed by people yelling “who clicked on that?!” Note: it wasn’t me. Good times.
