Request for nano-violins
I could do the job of a CSO, but I'll never get the title because I know far too much about security; that makes me a "technical specialist". If only I'd spent time going to dinner parties with the bourgeoisie and learned how to make small talk about house prices and the difficulty of finding good au pairs! Oh well, never mind, back to the PCAPs...
(I know more about non-tech aspects like risk, policy, ISMSes and frameworks, governance and the law than the next two layers of management above me, too, but as they've permanently filed me under "nerd" they pay no attention to anything I say on the subject. Saves me from getting into trouble for explaining what a risk assessment is, again, though.)
