So for the last 10 years I was an IT Generalist. Jack-of-all trades I suppose. Mostly due to the jobs I was taking. As a consulting for SMBs you tend to need to know a little about a lot of IT related topics. One day I could be setting up a new workstation, the next I can be plopping in a new Exchange server. After cleaning viruses off systems for so long, I figured I wanted to move into the role with more influence on better security so onto Info Sec!! For the last year I was able to concentrate on more security heavy items. Now today, I do things from minor malware anlysis to reviewing web applications. The current job requires me still to be a Jack-of-all trades in Security. Which makes me feel like a generalist with no real mastery of anything. Kinda the opposite result I was looking for

So how bout you? Do you feel like an Info Sec Generalist more often than not? Do you enjoy it? Discuss...
