About This Site

Much like Reno 911 was a mockumentary-style parody of law enforcement shows, Reno InfoSec is a parody of the things we see in the Information Security, Cyber Security, Information Technology, and Dev-Ops fields.

From memes about cables being ran across the floor, to comic strips about our favorite technicians, this site is meant to bring humor to the horrible attempts at professionalism we see in the field.
