Hey,
I just learned the CIOs are meeting this Friday and will likely discuss and approve continuing the assessments for the next couple of years. I am going to ask for some equipment refreshment funding.
What do you think we need for a core equipment refresh? I want to stop lugging that giant box around, we could continue to use the gear in it, just want to leave it in one place. What do we need to buy to take on site with us?
Core Gear: Beefy workstation laptop or a tower workstation with lots of RAM and space for Kali, Nessus VMs, etc. Maybe 2? Small hardware firewall, maybe a small form factor Atom box running PFsense or something similar to handle the network. 8 - 12 port managed switch. Cracking box - Good pile of RAM and 3 or 4 nice GPU cards.
What other toys do you want? (proxmark, more PIs, duckies, etc) If you want it, give me a rough number on quantity and what it will cost?
I need a pretty good idea of the dollar amount we want to ask for by Friday at noon.
Thanks, Andrew
