Being an Infosec professional kind of forces you to be a jack of all trades. It helps to develop a mindset where analyzing risk becomes second nature. Daily security and risk assessment decisions are an excellent exercise and will help build security muscle memory, and it benefits you professionally and personally. The premise is simple - I will outline what I do from a physical OPSEC standpoint when I travel or am just out and about, and you will reflect (with nudging) on my metaphors. We all do it to a certain extent, so why not consciously put it to the test? What better way to start the process than while traveling to a security conference?
