Kc2600 April 2025

 Greetings all, we will be meeting Friday April 4th 2025 at 6pm for the kc2600.  I will be out of town so I will see every one in May! -Asmo

Editorial 3/2025: Job seeking

A theme in local information security events such as SecKC and KC2600 is job hunting.  I have recommended several books and I figured I will put these online for people.  Also I would welcome this as a meeting topic, what are the top books you have read recently that have real value or meaning.
