Memento Mori

This is a brief introduction to penetration testing for people new to the subject. I recently started working on rounding out my skills with some security related studies, and I've really enjoyed the time I've spent studying penetration testing.Getting started with pentesting can be a bit daunting. There's a huge ecosystem of people, tools, techniques, and resources. It can be a little overwhelming.Here's some resources and a how I started getting some hands-on experience.

Getting started with the OCI terraform provider is easy, particularly since it became an official terraform provider. The [github docs](https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-oci/blob/master/docs/Table of Contents.md) [] are also a good resource, with a lot of examples in the repo. Layout the Repository I like to re-use a pattern that I learned from some of my very talented colleagues. It looks like this: csuttles@cs-mbp15:[~/src/oci-vault]:(master) [Exit: 0 0] 12:46: find . -type d | grep -vP '.

OpenStack is exciting! I started using OpenStack at work; in fact, my desire to work on it and learn more about it was a major factor in accepting my current position. The learning curve is steep, but don't let that intimidate you. The rewards for persistence are great. Crawl, Walk, Run OpenStack is a really large project, with a lot of moving parts. My approach, after some trial and error, and the approach I advise to people new to OpenStack is to crawl, walk, and run.
