iStock_000016696389XSmallA few weeks ago I put up a Facebook page for Veterans who may be interested learning more about Information Security.  The response was much greater than I had expected.  In response, I have setup an online community for Veterans interested in learning more about the field.  You can join at www.Vets4InfoSec.com  for FREE!…The objective of the group is to provide a forum for education, discussion, and networking for veterans and current service members who are interested in transitioning or simply wanting to learn more about information security.  If you are not a service member or veteran and want to help contribute to the body of knowledge and provide expertise, please feel free to join, as well.    A number of veterans have made the leap from military to InfoSec.  The current head of the PCI SSC is a Former Marine Grunt!…I am a former Grunt and a number of other folks have moved over… It is a great career and something that is well positioned for military members to have success.
