2019 Lincoln Nautilus first drive review
The Lincoln Motor Company is reinventing itself. After a generation of MK-thises and MK-thats that struggled to differentiate themselves from high-trim Fords, we got the one-two punch of Continental and redesigned Navigator. These aren't just a return of proper nameplates, either. Instead, Lincoln finally has some compelling luxury vehicles that don't just feel like upscale Fords.

From CNBC Google says apps may scan Gmail accounts if they get user consent
Google has given a preview of what to expect at a congressional hearing next week when the privacy of internet users takes center stage.
In a letter to three U.S. senators that became public on Thursday, Google defended how and when it lets app developers at other companies scan and share the contents of Gmail accounts, saying that it continuously vets the developers who have that level of access.

ASIS has opened the application process for the new Associate Protection Professional certification
ASIS has opened the application for those interested in taking part in the beta test for the new Associate Protection Professional or APP for short. Those applying for the new certification's beta test have been offered a discount because they'll need to wait 2-3 months for their results. During that time, ASIS will evaluate the performance of the exam and set a passing score.
This new certification program was developed as part of ASIS's Career Pathing Initiative. It is intended to be the first rung on a security management professional's career ladder. The exam will test professional's knowledge of these four domains: Security Fundamentals, Business Operations, Risk Management, and Response Management. As with ASIS's other certification programs, you will need a combination of education and/or experience to take the exam (1-4 years of experience in the security management field). The Certification Handbook has all the information on eligibility requirements, how to apply, fees, and recommended readings.

The Trusted Advisor
From International Security Driver Association
If there is only one business book you read, this is it. The book outlines the steps necessary to create a lasting relationship with clients.
In today’s fast-paced networked economy, professionals must work harder than ever to maintain and improve their business skills and knowledge. But technical mastery of one’s discipline is not enough, assert world-renowned professional advisors David H. Maister, Charles H. Green, and Robert M. Galford. The key to professional success, they argue, is the ability to earn the trust and confidence of clients. To demonstrate the paramount importance of trust, the authors use anecdotes, experiences, and examples — successes and mistakes, their own and others’ — to great effect. The result is an immensely readable book that will be welcomed by the inexperienced advisor and the most seasoned expert alike.
