My tip – take the onsite or classroom training from McAfee and then do exam – it’ll be a snap

I used a mix of experience (I have worked with McAfee ePO daily for 2 years) and downloaded the McAfee ePO install PDF and product guide PDF and worked through them making notes on minimum system specs etc. You need to know the console inside and out and have used each component.

I notice they now have a blueprint which also has some test questions, I suggest following this and having a go at the test questions.

Good luck with your exam, let me know how you get on!

Regards

Andy

]]> Comment on Password Strength by MobyChien http://securingtherealm.com/2010/10/24/password-strength/#comment-94 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 22:00:26 +0000 http://acrazypenguin.com/?p=417#comment-94 This article on password security is very misleading… Lots have been written on password or pass phrase security and IMHO, password is just not secure no matter how complex it is. The time it took to crack a password is very debatable and thus very misleading. For example, if Rainbow table is used (in case of Microsoft LM hash), I could crack your password no matter how complex it is as long as it is less than 15 character long in about less than an hour! So if the risk level is high (e.g. on-line banking), use two-factor authentication if it is possible.
