There is a lot I don& #39;t understand even remotely about Windows or lower-level computer function. I& #39;m always coming across stuff and questions from management during investigations I just don& #39;t have a solid answer for without research.

Frankly I feel guilty a lot of the time because I know it can seem like I can answer so much about Windows and security. But that level of awareness just leads to discovering even more I don& #39;t know, and anxiety nobody ever gets me in a corner and grills me on it and finds out.

But it& #39;s going to feel like that every step of the way from the beginning. It& #39;s important to recognize and accept it not as a gap in professional capability you can someday finally fix and finish, but a fact of life in a world more complex than human lifetime.

I& #39;m always surprised when "I& #39;ll find out" isn& #39;t just an acceptable answer at the highest levels of IT, it& #39;s often the default answer. That& #39;s just how it works.

Frankly, knowing it off the top of my head isn& #39;t good enough. I have to go off and make sure I understand it correctly.
