Network Security Infrastructure
Network security infrastructure provides several levels of protection to prevent MiM attacks:The Cisco ASA Firewall and ASA security policies can protect filtering and ACL mode devices from malicious or unwanted applications by blocking incoming packet filters or ACLs, respectively. When using the Cisco ASA firewall to secure filtering and ACL mode devices, the user must be aware that it can occasionally fail to log in to the firewall (a known issue). For these cases, Cisco recommends using the Cisco ASA Config console to enable secure configuration for filtered and ACL mode devices. For more information about how to configure the ASA firewall for secure configuration, visit ASA Configuration Secure Configuration, for more protection there are also other options like using a VPN, if you don’t know you can learn what is a VPN online.

The Best School Author Visit Ever!
I had an incredible classroom visit this week. I’ve done school and library author appearances before, from a reading for 20 to presentations with 200 all squashed together on the cafeteria floor. They were fun and the kids got involved as we talked and created a story together. But this . . . wow. Mrs. Auten teaches a combined 4th/5th class at Brown Elementary here in Brownsburg. Through the Shimmer of Time had been recommended as a book to tie in with a visit to Conner Prairie, so she contacted me and purchased one to read aloud to the class. They finished it before Fall Break, visited Conner Prairie, and then invited me to the class for a Q & A session. Sounds good, right? And then I found out what an amazing teacher Mrs. Auten is. As she read each chapter, she asked the kids to listen for a particular thing … Continue reading

Flunking NaNoWriMo, Finding a Writing Rhythm
I admit it: I flunked NaNo this year. I had great plans of using the month to crank out a down-and-dirty rough draft of Shimmer #2. What I discovered was that a good story (not just a large word count), necessary historical research and a 30-day deadline do not make a good combination! At about the 10,000 word mark, I discovered a resource that filled in a lot of gaps in my knowledge about life in the canal construction camps of the 1830s. Great info, but it also meant stopping to read, re-imagine and re-plot before I could move forward again. And when local book signings and a marketing push on Mother-Daughter Book Reviews took over my brain, and NaNoWriMo went completely kaput. Sigh. On the other hand, when I was working on those 10,000 words, I discovered a great rhythm for my writing time! As many of you know, … Continue reading
