Article
I am writing an article on Azure Sentinel, as far as SIEM, SOAR, and XDR are concerned with Sentinel. This article is coming together with the knowledge that I have gained from my recent SC-900 certification. I will publish this article next week as I wrap up the writing and editing process. The article is going to be called SIEM, SOAR and XDR. It goes into the different functions in Azure Sentinel based on those functions.
Training
My gameplan for training is to study and take both the Certified in Cybersecurity and the CCNP ENCOR exams this year. For the Certified in Cybersecurity certification, I would like to take it in July. I will wait until later in the year to take the CCNP ENCOR or Enterprise Core exam. In the second half of the year, I would like to do more with Python and Ruby along with Terraform and Chef programming.
Along with this training there are some things that I would like to work on as far as next year. Currently, I am working towards the CCNP ENARSI, SSCP, SC-200 and the SAL1 from TryHackMe for next year. This will help my Microsoft and Cisco training as well as work towards more exposure on the CISSP Security Operations module. The CCNP ENARSI exam is the CCNP Enterprise Advanced Routing exam and will allow for me to become a CCNP Enterprise along with the ENCOR exam.
Blog
This is the second blog post that I have posted on aaron597.com and the blog is working well with the Joomla Server that I created. I am working on making some more content for aaron597.com and will try to do more Cisco and Microsoft. I’m interested in cybersecurity stuff too, so I will also be posting about the things that I am doing on TryHackMe and HacktheBox.
Conclusion
There are updates about my TryHackMe rank and how many badges that I have earned along with the status of my progress in the Sapphire League that I am in now. To update you on those I am currently on a 17-day streak ranked at 9437 with 32 badges and 211 rooms completed. I am still a Legend and ranked #11 in the Sapphire League with the top 7 advancing to the next league.
I am working on doing more for the Cisco side and became a top fan of Router Nest and a rising fan on It Networks on Facebook. I would still have to work on the Cisco and Microsoft Communities and on social media to get enough exposure to the Cisco Champion or Microsoft MVP program. Some things are working for the better and I still have room to go before I hit the numbers needed to get into these programs.

Exploring Cisco and Microsoft
There are some things that I want to do with this new blog. I am going to be exploring Cisco and Microsoft technologies in this blog aaron597.com. Making a new blog was tougher than I anticipated and was an experience of its own. I created this blog for another channel where I can do new blog posts and explore these Cisco and Microsoft Technologies.

My name is Aaron DeJong and currently I hold eight certifications all together. These certifications include the CompTIA ITF+ and A+, the Microsoft MS-900, AZ-900, and SC-900 in addition to the Cisco CCNA, CCST: Networking and the CCST: Cybersecurity. I am the Owner of this blog and aaronwdejong.net in addition to a Freelance Writing and IT Consulting firm located in Aurora, CO.
Goals for the Blog
According to what I want to accomplish, I want to explore the Microsoft and Cisco technologies and its relation to my expertise. This will provide a new channel to work on becoming a Cisco Insider Champion and a Microsoft MVP. I will need the certifications from Cisco and Microsoft to get this to work more effectively.
There are some things that I will keep on aaronwdejong.net like the mental health aspects of my journey in IT with mental health.
