Welcome everyone, and thank you for visiting
“The Virtually Connected“!
My name is Tim, and I originally created this site to help my VMware customers and partners I supported years ago when I first joined VMware. However, VMware was acquired by Broadcom and my position has been eliminated. So I am now on the market looking for a new job and I have decided I would like to find a Cyber Security role.
I am currently looking to recertify my CompTIA Security+ certification that expired since I didn’t keep up with it. Next, I will work on my CISSP and CEH certifications and hope to be complete with them in the coming months.
My hope is that with my extensive IT experience over the years and the security-related certs I will be able to break into a Cyber Security role soon. I to use this site to help myself as well as others in the security arena!
