Una cinquantena de voluntaris de les ADFs s'uneixen als bombers catalans ja desplegats.
Sean is joined by identity expert Sander Berkouwer to explore the evolving landscape of enterprise authentication. Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS), first introduced with Windows Server 2003, continues to support many organizations with single sign-on. However, its usage is steadily declining as cloud-native solutions take center stage. Sean and Sander unpack the reasons behind this shift, the challenges of legacy infrastructure, and the practical steps organizations can take to migrate from AD FS to Microsoft Entra ID. Whether you're planning a transition or just curious about the future of identity management, this conversation offers valuable insights and actionable guidance.
In this (late) episode, we chat to Andrew McMurray, a Principal Product Manager at Microsoft about securing Copilot data as well as how Purview can play a role in doing so. We also cover news about MFA access to the Azure Portal (Important), PostgreSQL, Entra ID and Windows authn metadata, Backup Vaults, Conditional Access Policy, ADFS, and Azure Container Apps.
In this episode, Andy sits down once again with Paul to continue their conversation about Microsoft's struggles with security. The episode focuses on a recent report from ProPublica about a Microsoft whistleblower named Andrew Harris. The report alleges that Microsoft was aware of a serious vulnerability in its on-premises Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) software that could have enabled the SolarWinds supply chain attack, but chose not to fix it or disclose it to customers. Andy and Paul discuss how Microsoft's focus on new features and cloud growth over security, as well as the desire to win lucrative government contracts, may have contributed to this decision. They also touch on the challenges faced by Microsoft's security response team and the broader issue of security being seen as a cost center rather than a profit driver. Key Takeaways: Microsoft ignored a serious ADFS vulnerability that could have enabled widespread attacks. Security is often viewed as a cost center at Microsoft, rather than a profit driver. This mindset led to the ADFS vulnerability being ignored, as fixing it was not seen as a priority compared to delivering new features and products. Microsoft was criticized for not being transparent about the ADFS vulnerability and not giving customers the option to implement mitigations, even if it meant sacrificing some functionality. The ADFS incident is symptomatic of broader security culture problems at Microsoft, where security is not always prioritized, and technical debt or legacy systems are not adequately addressed.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.01.25.525625v1?rss=1 Authors: Jolivet, M.-D., Gouguet, P., Legrand, A., Xhelilaj, K., Faiss, N., Massoni-Laporte, A., Robbe, T., Sagot, I., Boudsocq, M., German-Retana, S., Üstün, S., Loquet, A., Habenstein, B., Germain, V., Mongrand, S., Gronnier, J. Abstract: The dynamic regulation of the plasma membrane (PM) organization at the nanoscale emerged as a key element shaping the outcome of host-microbe interactions. Protein organization into nanodomains (ND) is often assumed to be linked to the activation of cellular processes. In contrast, we have previously shown that the phosphorylation of the Solanum tuberosum REM1.3 (StREM1.3) N-terminal domain disperses its native ND organization and promotes its inhibitory effect on Potato Virus X (PVX) cell-to-cell movement. Here, we show that the phosphorylation of StREM1.3 modify the chemical environment of numerous residues in its intrinsically-disordered N-terminal domain. We leveraged exploratory screens to identify potential phosphorylation-dependent interactors of StREM1.3. Herewith, we uncovered uncharacterized regulators of PVX cell-to-cell movement, linking StREM1.3 to autophagy, water channels and the actin cytoskeleton. We show that the Solanum tuberosum actin depolymerizing factors 2 (StADF2) alters StREM1.3 NDs and limits PVX cell-to-cell movement in a REMORIN-dependent manner. Mutating a conserved single residue reported to affect ADFs affinity to actin inhibits StADF2 effect on StREM1.3 ND organization and PVX cell-to-cell movement. These observations provide functional links between the organization of plant PM and the actin cytoskeleton and suggests that the alteration of StREM1.3 ND organization promotes plant anti-viral responses. We envision that analogous PM re-organization applies for additional signaling pathways in plants and in other organisms. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Ready For Takeoff - Turn Your Aviation Passion Into A Career
Dead Reckoning On May 21, 1927 Charles Lindbergh landed in Paris, France after a successful non-stop flight from the United States in the single-engined Spirit of St. Louis. As the aircraft was equipped with very basic instruments, Lindbergh used dead reckoning to navigate. Dead reckoning in the air is similar to dead reckoning on the sea, but slightly more complicated. The density of the air the aircraft moves through affects its performance as well as winds, weight, and power settings. The basic formula for DR is Distance = Speed x Time. An aircraft flying at 250 knots airspeed for 2 hours has flown 500 nautical miles through the air. The wind triangle is used to calculate the effects of wind on heading and airspeed to obtain a magnetic heading to steer and the speed over the ground (groundspeed). Printed tables, formulae, or an E6B flight computer are used to calculate the effects of air density on aircraft rate of climb, rate of fuel burn, and airspeed. A course line is drawn on the aeronautical chart along with estimated positions at fixed intervals (say every ½ hour). Visual observations of ground features are used to obtain fixes. By comparing the fix and the estimated position corrections are made to the aircraft's heading and groundspeed. Dead reckoning is on the curriculum for VFR (visual flight rules - or basic level) pilots worldwide. It is taught regardless of whether the aircraft has navigation aids such as GPS, ADF and VOR and is an ICAO Requirement. Many flying training schools will prevent a student from using electronic aids until they have mastered dead reckoning. Inertial navigation systems (INSes), which are nearly universal on more advanced aircraft, use dead reckoning internally. The INS provides reliable navigation capability under virtually any conditions, without the need for external navigation references, although it is still prone to slight errors. Transcontinental Airway System In 1923, the United States Congress funded a sequential lighted airway along the transcontinental airmail route. The lighted airway was proposed by National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), and deployed by the Department of Commerce. It was managed by the Bureau of Standards Aeronautical Branch. The first segment built was between Chicago and Cheyenne, Wyoming. It was situated in the middle of the airmail route to enable aircraft to depart from either coast in the daytime, and reach the lighted airway by nightfall. Lighted emergency airfields were also funded along the route every 15–20 miles. Construction pace was fast, and pilots wishing to become airmail pilots were first exposed to the harsh wintertime work with the crews building the first segments of the lighting system. By the end of the year, the public anticipated anchored lighted airways across the Atlantic, Pacific, and to China. The first nighttime airmail flights started on July 1, 1924. By eliminating the transfer of mail to rail cars at night, the coast to coast delivery time for airmail was reduced by two business days. Eventually, there were 284 beacons in service. With a June 1925 deadline, the 2,665 mile lighted airway was completed from New York to San Francisco. In 1927, the lighted airway was complete between New York City and Salt Lake City, Los Angeles to Las Vegas, Los Angeles to San Francisco, New York to Atlanta, and Chicago to Dallas, 4121 miles in total. In 1933, the Transcontinental Airway System totaled 1500 beacons, and 18000 miles. The lighted Airway Beacons were a substantial navigation aid in an era prior to the development of radio navigation. Their effectiveness was limited by visibility and weather conditions.Beacon 61B on a modern display tower, originally installed on route CAM-8 near Castle Rock, WA 24 inches (610 mm) diameter rotating beacons were mounted on 53-foot (16 m) high towers, and spaced ten miles apart. The spacing was closer in the mountains, and farther apart in the plains. The beacons were five million candlepower, and rotated six times a minute. "Ford beacons" (named after Ford Car headlights) were also used, placing four separate lights at different angles.Air ports used green beacons and airways used red beacons. The beacons flashed identification numbers in Morse code. The sequence was "WUVHRKDBGM", which prompted the mnemonic "When Undertaking Very Hard Routes Keep Directions By Good Methods".Engineers believed the variations of beacon height along hills and valleys would allow pilots to see beacons both above ground fog, and below cloud layers. Towers were built of numbered angle iron sections with concrete footings. Some facilities used concrete arrows pointing in the direction of towers. In areas where no connection to a power grid was available, a generator was housed in a small building. Some buildings also served as weather stations. Many arrow markings were removed during World War II, to prevent aiding enemy bombers in navigation, while 19 updated beacons still remain in service in Montana. ADF An automatic direction finder (ADF) is a marine or aircraft radio-navigation instrument that automatically and continuously displays the relative bearing from the ship or aircraft to a suitable radio station. ADF receivers are normally tuned to aviation or marine NDBs (Non-Directional Beacon) operating in the LW band between 190 – 535 kHz. Like RDF (Radio Direction Finder) units, most ADF receivers can also receive medium wave (AM) broadcast stations, though as mentioned, these are less reliable for navigational purposes. The operator tunes the ADF receiver to the correct frequency and verifies the identity of the beacon by listening to the Morse code signal transmitted by the NDB. On marine ADF receivers, the motorized ferrite-bar antenna atop the unit (or remotely mounted on the masthead) would rotate and lock when reaching the null of the desired station. A centerline on the antenna unit moving atop a compass rose indicated in degrees the bearing of the station. On aviation ADFs, the unit automatically moves a compass-like pointer (RMI) to show the direction of the beacon. The pilot may use this pointer to home directly towards the beacon, or may also use the magnetic compass and calculate the direction from the beacon (the radial) at which their aircraft is located. Unlike the RDF, the ADF operates without direct intervention, and continuously displays the direction of the tuned beacon. Initially, all ADF receivers, both marine and aircraft versions, contained a rotating loop or ferrite loopstick aerial driven by a motor which was controlled by the receiver. Like the RDF, a sense antenna verified the correct direction from its 180-degree opposite. More modern aviation ADFs contain a small array of fixed aerials and use electronic sensors to deduce the direction using the strength and phase of the signals from each aerial. The electronic sensors listen for the trough that occurs when the antenna is at right angles to the signal, and provide the heading to the station using a direction indicator. In flight, the ADF's RMI or direction indicator will always point to the broadcast station regardless of aircraft heading. Dip error is introduced, however, when the aircraft is in a banked attitude, as the needle dips down in the direction of the turn. This is the result of the loop itself banking with the aircraft and therefore being at a different angle to the beacon. For ease of visualisation, it can be useful to consider a 90° banked turn, with the wings vertical. The bearing of the beacon as seen from the ADF aerial will now be unrelated to the direction of the aircraft to the beacon. VOR Very high frequency omni-directional range (VOR) is a type of short-range radio navigation system for aircraft, enabling aircraft with a receiving unit to determine its position and stay on course by receiving radio signals transmitted by a network of fixed ground radio beacons. It uses frequencies in the very high frequency (VHF) band from 108.00 to 117.95 MHz. Developed in the United States beginning in 1937 and deployed by 1946, VOR is the standard air navigational system in the world, used by both commercial and general aviation. In the year 2000 there were about 3,000 VOR stations operating around the world, including 1,033 in the US, reduced to 967 by 2013 (stations are being decommissioned with widespread adoption of GPS). A VOR ground station uses a phased antenna array to send a highly directional signal that rotates clockwise horizontally (as seen from above) 30 times a second. It also sends a 30 Hz reference signal on a subcarrier timed to be in phase with the directional antenna as the latter passes magnetic north. This reference signal is the same in all directions. The phase difference between the reference signal and the signal amplitude is the bearing from the VOR station to the receiver relative to magnetic north. This line of position is called the VOR "radial". The intersection of radials from two different VOR stations can be used to fix the position of the aircraft, as in earlier radio direction finding (RDF) systems. VOR stations are fairly short range: the signals are line-of-sight between transmitter and receiver and are useful for up to 200 miles. Each station broadcasts a VHF radio composite signal including the navigation signal, station's identifier and voice, if so equipped. The navigation signal allows the airborne receiving equipment to determine a bearing from the station to the aircraft (direction from the VOR station in relation to Magnetic North). The station's identifier is typically a three-letter string in Morse code. The voice signal, if used, is usually the station name, in-flight recorded advisories, or live flight service broadcasts. Area Navigation The continuing growth of aviation increases demands on airspace capacity, making area navigation desirable due to its improved operational efficiency. RNAV systems evolved in a manner similar to conventional ground-based routes and procedures. A specific RNAV system was identified and its performance was evaluated through a combination of analysis and flight testing. For land-based operations, the initial systems used very high frequency omnidirectional radio range (VOR) and distance measuring equipment (DME) for estimating position; for oceanic operations, inertial navigation systems (INS) were employed. Airspace and obstacle clearance criteria were developed based on the performance of available equipment, and specifications for requirements were based on available capabilities. Such prescriptive requirements resulted in delays to the introduction of new RNAV system capabilities and higher costs for maintaining appropriate certification. To avoid such prescriptive specifications of requirements, an alternative method for defining equipment requirements has been introduced. This enables the specification of performance requirements, independent of available equipment capabilities, and is termed performance-based navigation (PBN). Thus, RNAV is now one of the navigation techniques of PBN; currently the only other is required navigation performance (RNP). RNP systems add on-board performance monitoring and alerting to the navigation capabilities of RNAV. As a result of decisions made in the industry in the 1990s, most modern systems are RNP. Many RNAV systems, while offering very high accuracy and possessing many of the functions provided by RNP systems, are not able to provide assurance of their performance. Recognising this, and to avoid operators incurring unnecessary expense, where the airspace requirement does not necessitate the use of an RNP system, many new as well as existing navigation requirements will continue to specify RNAV rather than RNP systems. It is therefore expected that RNAV and RNP operations will co-exist for many years. However, RNP systems provide improvements in the integrity of operation, permitting possibly closer route spacing, and can provide sufficient integrity to allow only the RNP systems to be used for navigation in a specific airspace. The use of RNP systems may therefore offer significant safety, operational and efficiency benefits. While RNAV and RNP applications will co-exist for a number of years, it is expected that there will be a gradual transition to RNP applications as the proportion of aircraft equipped with RNP systems increases and the cost of transition reduces. INS Inertial navigation is a self-contained navigation technique in which measurements provided by accelerometers and gyroscopes are used to track the position and orientation of an object relative to a known starting point, orientation and velocity. Inertial measurement units (IMUs) typically contain three orthogonal rate-gyroscopes and three orthogonal accelerometers, measuring angular velocity and linear acceleration respectively. By processing signals from these devices it is possible to track the position and orientation of a device. Inertial navigation is used in a wide range of applications including the navigation of aircraft, tactical and strategic missiles, spacecraft, submarines and ships. It is also embedded in some mobile phones for purposes of mobile phone location and tracking Recent advances in the construction of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have made it possible to manufacture small and light inertial navigation systems. These advances have widened the range of possible applications to include areas such as human and animal motion capture. An inertial navigation system includes at least a computer and a platform or module containing accelerometers, gyroscopes, or other motion-sensing devices. The INS is initially provided with its position and velocity from another source (a human operator, a GPS satellite receiver, etc.) accompanied with the initial orientation and thereafter computes its own updated position and velocity by integrating information received from the motion sensors. The advantage of an INS is that it requires no external references in order to determine its position, orientation, or velocity once it has been initialized. An INS can detect a change in its geographic position (a move east or north, for example), a change in its velocity (speed and direction of movement) and a change in its orientation (rotation about an axis). It does this by measuring the linear acceleration and angular velocity applied to the system. Since it requires no external reference (after initialization), it is immune to jamming and deception. Inertial navigation systems are used in many different moving objects. However, their cost and complexity place constraints on the environments in which they are practical for use. Gyroscopes measure the angular velocity of the sensor frame with respect to the inertial reference frame. By using the original orientation of the system in the inertial reference frame as the initial condition and integrating the angular velocity, the system's current orientation is known at all times. This can be thought of as the ability of a blindfolded passenger in a car to feel the car turn left and right or tilt up and down as the car ascends or descends hills. Based on this information alone, the passenger knows what direction the car is facing but not how fast or slow it is moving, or whether it is sliding sideways. Accelerometers measure the linear acceleration of the moving vehicle in the sensor or body frame, but in directions that can only be measured relative to the moving system (since the accelerometers are fixed to the system and rotate with the system, but are not aware of their own orientation). This can be thought of as the ability of a blindfolded passenger in a car to feel himself pressed back into his seat as the vehicle accelerates forward or pulled forward as it slows down; and feel himself pressed down into his seat as the vehicle accelerates up a hill or rise up out of their seat as the car passes over the crest of a hill and begins to descend. Based on this information alone, he knows how the vehicle is accelerating relative to itself, that is, whether it is accelerating forward, backward, left, right, up (toward the car's ceiling), or down (toward the car's floor) measured relative to the car, but not the direction relative to the Earth, since he did not know what direction the car was facing relative to the Earth when they felt the accelerations. However, by tracking both the current angular velocity of the system and the current linear acceleration of the system measured relative to the moving system, it is possible to determine the linear acceleration of the system in the inertial reference frame. Performing integration on the inertial accelerations (using the original velocity as the initial conditions) using the correct kinematic equations yields the inertial velocities of the system and integration again (using the original position as the initial condition) yields the inertial position. In our example, if the blindfolded passenger knew how the car was pointed and what its velocity was before he was blindfolded and if he is able to keep track of both how the car has turned and how it has accelerated and decelerated since, then he can accurately know the current orientation, position, and velocity of the car at any time. Global Positioning System The Global Positioning System (GPS), originally Navstar GPS, is a satellite-based radionavigation system owned by the United States government and operated by the United States Space Force. It is one of the global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) that provides geolocation and time information to a GPS receiver anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. Obstacles such as mountains and buildings block the relatively weak GPS signals. The GPS does not require the user to transmit any data, and it operates independently of any telephonic or internet reception, though these technologies can enhance the usefulness of the GPS positioning information. The GPS provides critical positioning capabilities to military, civil, and commercial users around the world. The United States government created the system, maintains it, and makes it freely accessible to anyone with a GPS receiver. The GPS project was started by the U.S. Department of Defense in 1973, with the first prototype spacecraft launched in 1978 and the full constellation of 24 satellites operational in 1993. Originally limited to use by the United States military, civilian use was allowed from the 1980s following an executive order from President Ronald Reagan after the Korean Air Lines Flight 007 incident. Advances in technology and new demands on the existing system have now led to efforts to modernize the GPS and implement the next generation of GPS Block IIIA satellites and Next Generation Operational Control System (OCX). Announcements from Vice President Al Gore and the Clinton Administration in 1998 initiated these changes, which were authorized by the U.S. Congress in 2000. During the 1990s, GPS quality was degraded by the United States government in a program called "Selective Availability"; this was discontinued on May 1, 2000 by a law signed by President Bill Clinton. The GPS service is provided by the United States government, which can selectively deny access to the system, as happened to the Indian military in 1999 during the Kargil War, or degrade the service at any time. As a result, several countries have developed or are in the process of setting up other global or regional satellite navigation systems. The Russian Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) was developed contemporaneously with GPS, but suffered from incomplete coverage of the globe until the mid-2000s. GLONASS can be added to GPS devices, making more satellites available and enabling positions to be fixed more quickly and accurately, to within two meters (6.6 ft). China's BeiDou Navigation Satellite System began global services in 2018, and finished its full deployment in 2020. There are also the European Union Galileo positioning system, and India's NavIC. Japan's Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) is a GPS satellite-based augmentation system to enhance GPS's accuracy in Asia-Oceania, with satellite navigation independent of GPS scheduled for 2023. When selective availability was lifted in 2000, GPS had about a five-meter (16 ft) accuracy. GPS receivers that use the L5 band can have much higher accuracy, pinpointing to within 30 centimeters (11.8 in). As of May 2021, 16 GPS satellites are broadcasting L5 signals, and the signals are considered pre-operational, scheduled to reach 24 satellites by approximately 2027.
Well, if you’re looking for a new job in the information technology field, you’re probably going to want to keep this event next week in mind. Listen in as the CTO and lead recruiter talk about the upcoming job fair for United Shore’s open IT positions… Details at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/united-shore-it-career-fair-march-4-2020-registration-91911982213 Speaker 1: Hey, what’s going on? This is episode three 36 of the it and the D show guests this week include Jason Bressler. He is the CTO Matt Turner. He is one of the head recruiters of United shore mortgage. They’re putting on a career fair on March 4th over 300 open it positions, everything from coding to networking. They’re going to be talking all about it. You’re going to Snowmageddon in Detroit and we got a lot of funny stories and Dave, you may fire when ready. Hey, what’s happening? What’s going on? This is episode three 36 of the one and only it in the D show. We are broadcasting live here in studio one podcast. He threatened beautiful snowy Royal Oak, Michigan spot. The sales guy. That is Dave the geek. Randy. I do the Twitters is doing the Twitters, find us online it and the D. dot com and do us a favor. Give us a like on the socials, subscribe to us everywhere. Fine podcasts Speaker 2: or sold. Hey, so what do we have? We got a the Anarbor event coming up on, uh, three, three, uh, I forget. I always forget the odd even thing. I should have that memorized by now and I just don’t two years now. Yeah, I am. I, my brain refuses to commit that to memory. Uh, and then we had, uh, well the next one is, uh, the 19th that will be at the cozy lounge. Uh, and they are really kind of dorked about us being there. And not only that, they’re named for one of the best burgers in Southeastern Michigan. Yeah. They were like one of the, yeah, the one of the top 10 burgers, right? Like, Oh my God, they’re so cool. I agree. And I would like James [inaudible] from Mabel gray who was like, I think he’s James Beard. He’s one of the top chefs in, yeah. Speaker 2: He like swears by their chicken biscuits. So like that honestly, God for, it’s a little dive bar. It’s a little townie bar, but they’ve transformed that they can do like kind of a cool little place, great little place. And we’re looking forward to it. And, and you know, and then the last week we had our event at Woodbridge pub. Um, really? Well, that was the first time I remember being there. I haven’t been there before, but I haven’t been since my Wayne state days. Oh yeah. And, and like that place like just brought back tons of, yeah. It was phenomenal. Like love that place, love to go back. Everybody was like, it couldn’t have been happier and it was yet another one. That’s like, a lot of the people that showed up were like, Oh my God, heard about this place. Never been here. Really digging it. Speaker 2: And they have decent sipping room and you know, and they have food as long as you don’t want the chicken wings. No chicken wings. Yeah. Chicken wings are gone. I was in the mode, but then I had, I ordered that chicken one tons. That sounds weird. All over to that. And it’s chicken egg rolls. It’s like you take the bottom of chicken soup and you slab in an egg roll and it was actually pretty good anyway. Yeah. Looking forward to it. Looking forward to cozy. It should be good. Um, and then, Hey, uh, just on a personal note, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention, um, Hey, rest in peace. Kelly Tucker, uh, great guy. Uh, local, uh, I mean he, he did, uh, stuff with us back in the raw radio X days. Uh, he was a sound guy over at the Ritz downtown at st Andrews. Speaker 2: He did stuff out at diesel. Uh, Kate, one of our engineers actually went to graduated specs wait time. A lot of people touch a lot of lives. They, I was, uh, if you read his wall today, man, touching a lot of lives. Yeah. Great. Great guy. Gone too. Damn soon. Uh, so rest easy bro. So Honda, funny, yucky cheats. Nah, no show. Must go on, right. He would say the same thing. Don’t cut the damn Mike. But one of the, uh, the funny race and I don’t, one of the funniest tweets I’ve seen all week. Uh, basically I didn’t even know that this was possible or this was a thing. Um, but basically it’s an app powered car and this couple when basically in rural California on the mountain, like basically for a drive on the weekend. Yeah. And they lost cell signal cell coverage and their car Brecht. Speaker 2: And it got stuck literally in the middle of the shit’s villain nowhere. That was the best day Heather. So car will not go. And I, I guess this is where we live now. Right? But here’s the stupidest part. I’m like, wait a minute, you’re tweeting. So the cell phone works. So the first tweet they answer their own like stupid question. They’re like, it appears though I do not have enough cell service to start. My only means of transportation. I do have enough to live tweet my struggle. So thanks for tuning in. I’ll be here. And definitely like again, I was stupid. Like you can send out tweets but you know, what does the car need? Like just bandwidth requirements. Got it. Who died? Yeah. That’s one of the dumbest things I did. Like I, I was going back to like, the one thing I could think of was like the old stories about like you don’t know far superstar, uh, that had like the GPS tracking devices and cutouts cars, the low jacks and all that stuff on financed vehicles. Speaker 2: Yeah. So just, yeah, just the bizarre I, yeah, I, it’s just one of those weird things that like you don’t really think through well they would think there’s not full coverage everywhere. You, you know, I don’t know. It did remind me though. I watched the worst photo. That seems like a pretty common shortsighted oversight of it. It, there isn’t, there isn’t a cell, there isn’t a cell company that says a hundred percent coverage. Like they all say 99.9% or whatever. They, you know, there’s always some weird pocket and weirdo they prominent use sprint or something. It’s Bryant. Yeah, it does remind me of the worst. I think one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen in my life this weekend and that saved something and I should’ve known, I should’ve known better. It was called cell. And you know, I think I’ve seen like the trailer for this, but I haven’t actually watched it. Speaker 2: I love me some John Q SAC, he’s one of my top of all time, who’s coming to town in April. He is for the free. I tweeted them to see if he’d come on the show. That’s not going to happen. But whatever wishful thinking. We’ve got Anthony Michael Hall, my Mizel, you know, I’ll shoot for the moon at this point. I’m Samuel L. Jackson was in it and uh, it was kind of like the all 11% on rotten tomatoes. I know. I go, there’s no way it can be that cause it, was he tired of the cell phones on his head? No, no. I didn’t get that bad. But like it was a, and then it was like 18% audience score. I go, there’s no way it could be that bad. And it starts off like put, wait. Oh, but wait. Yeah. So he starts out like John Q six in the airport and all of a sudden, like, everyone that’s on their cell phone is like, uh, killing people. Speaker 2: Like right. Like, it’s almost like Dawn of the dead wood Ving right. We’re in the beginning. It’s like that cool scene where like the outbreak starts and like the town’s on fire and all this, so they go out in a remote remote, whatever. And if you were like open up a cell phone like so like cell phones became that VHS tape in the rain. Then the people open up their models and like get cell signal like [inaudible] and like then they like, yeah it ended there. Basically a guy handsome, they find this diner and the guy hands him like a flip phone. He says, dial this number when you need to save. And like at the end of the movies, like he calls the number and then he’s like in this ring of people around the cell tower and now they’re all going to [inaudible] and that was it, dude. Speaker 2: I swear to God I could go. That couldn’t have been it. And the credits are rolling. I’m like, I sat through this whole, I don’t know, this sounds like a good cheesy movie date night. It’s not the watch one of those. Like what have you heard the MST three K? No, I was gonna say my standard. No, because it wasn’t, it wasn’t like the Perato movies and all those stupid we, me and my wife watched some dumb one where like there was a beast in the sand and have you touched the sand? I was like, well floors, lava and you eat and, and at the end it came out of the sand. Was it the Sarlacc? I guess I’m going to stick with my standard cheesy date movie. Then a good snow. What’s that? Oh, you haven’t seen dead snow. Is it worse than Jack Frost? It’s a, not that Michael Keaton one the horrible where the snowman kills people, but nobody thinks to light a fricking match Nazi zombies up in Norway. Speaker 2: Come on. It’s amazing. Nazi zombies. No, I did see the one that was the has a sequel red dead two red versus dead, which is Russian zombies versus Nazi zombies. What was the one Nazi Nazi midgets and later hosing or something. And there was like a movie that was like, I’d show it to him. I had to click on and I lasted about eight minutes. This is the worst thing I’ve ever seen in my life. That’s outstanding. I’m kind of a weird week for hackers. Yes. Week. So, and I did, I found this interesting. Um, so the same hacker ran two exploits, um, against [inaudible] and managed to walk away. Well, what’s, for those that don’t know what’s, what’s DFI? It’s a decentralized finance. So it’s, you know, like, uh, all the cryptocurrency stuff that you got it. Got it. Got it. Um, and it’s one of the, one of the, you know, the trading houses and walked away with over $1 million in Ethereum over the course of two transactions. Speaker 2: But see, now explain to me this dumb dumb guy in me says, don’t you, where do you cash that out if you stole it because it’s tagged, it’s marked, it’s fingerprinted. Do you follow what I’m saying? Like, you can’t go on Coinbase and cash it out. Like if you just took it from softball. I mean, in theory you could, but I mean, it’s actually more to the point that knowing those exploits are feasible and viable. Um, cause yeah, I mean he basically just, you know, exploited, uh, I guess what in in certain circles as a very well known, uh, I just kind of flaw in the way that the, you know, the transactions are authenticated and that kind of stuff and just overflowed the system and whew. There want a million bucks. Wow. That was, this wasn’t a pen test. This was like, just like, how did they know? Speaker 2: Was it like stupid kid bragged about it? Like on social? No, they realize it’s gone. Yeah. Yeah. There’s two transactions over $1 million call and you’re going to notice, Oh my God, that’s insane. Oh yeah. Good luck with that. Yeah. So this one was, I, I don’t know if you, if you watched the video of this at all, um, especially in light of, Oh, by the way, the news broke today. Did you hear that? We’ve picked up a second moon. What, uh, the earth has picked up a second moon that’s no moon yet. Uh, and it’s about the size of a car. Um, they said it’s, it’s basically an asteroid that drifted close enough to get sucked into our gravitational orbit. Uh, there’s a whole ton of shit in our grad gravitational orbit, but not like this, not orbiting the earth like this. Um, and so, but they said it’s already on. Speaker 2: Um, like a, I forget what they call it, a skewed trajectory. So it’s probably only gonna be around for, you know, a while and then it’s going to get flung back out. Um, you know, it’s doing the whole star Trek whip around the sun. You know, it is a quote temporary captured object. Yes. Are we going to land on it? And somebody will not land on this planet in the name of, somebody will put their name, spray paint their name on it. Why not? I’m sure Elon Musk is desperately trying to figure out how to get there, to put it, put a logo on it. Yeah, totally. Uh, but no. So, uh, there was an asteroid that, uh, hit, well it didn’t hit, but it exploded, um, over the, over India and basically turned at night into day for awhile. Dude, I remember when we were kids, there’s a gas plant on Moravian and Shaner that blew up and I’m maybe 10 or 12. Speaker 2: There’s people, I remember this story cause their cars melted, the siding melted and the whole sky three in the morning is orange. Yeah, this sounds good. I scream that the aliens are going to get us and my parents like, cause I was, I watched all that crap. The big foot shows, the alien shows the UFOs. And I’m like these sound like the sort of coincidence is that trigger or complete agent spells. Like you know when the sky burns and whoops, yeah, the seventh sign of the whatever it is. Well yeah, 53 equivalent to 53 tons of TNT being detonated in the skies, CCTV footage of a cheese. And they said there’s a, and that was good. I, I went down the rabbit hole with all these, with all these kind of stories. And then there’s basically, there’s another one, um, that should be missing the earth, uh, by about, I forget what it was. Speaker 2: I think it’s like 2 million miles. Um, which sounds like a lot, but it’s really not in astronomical terms apparently. Um, but they said the next time it comes around in 20 years, it’s going to do this exact same thing and it’s one of those bigger ones that we probably want to figure out a way to deal with it before it hits the atmosphere. I don’t shoot up a bill, Bruce Willis and exactly the same Aerosmith balance, much easier to train in a minor to be an astronaut than an astronaut. Ben Affleck, who else is in a piece of shit movie? Lou Tyler stupid. Just Oh, what’s his name? Speaker 2: Oh God. That movie is hell. I’m not saddling blade in that movie. Billy Bob, you refer to him as Slingblade. I couldn’t spit it enough crap. Since then by the French fried potatoes. I’m no stupid one. And I want to test, see if Tom Lawrence has cars, we should mess with them. Uh, in meal daddy. Yeah. I want hackers stuck apparently a two inch strip of tape on a 35 mile an hour speed sign and trick to Tesla’s and accelerating the 85 miles an hour. That’s what they did. Yeah. They took two inch tape cause you know the, the lettering is, or the numbering is two inches wide, the paint strokes, uh, and turned a 35 mile an hour sign and do an 85 mile an hour sign. So riddle me this, like when you got GPS on in your Googles and your car, they have the posted speed limit. Speaker 2: So wouldn’t that, Oh you would think that would override reading tape. Cause there’s no place in the U S where there’s an 85 mile an hour speed limit isn’t a Wyoming. I believe there is Montana maybe. But like, but no. So it coders would put you, you would, you would think that they wouldn’t. So and so Tom actually kind of laid this out a little bit pretty decently where it is. So it was the old, it was a, the Teslas that were hit were running the old first generation. Um, don’t they update those and I guess they hadn’t at that point. Uh, and so they were still using the, trying to use the recognition of there’s the sign, read the sign instead of what, you know, what we have now where, you know, yes, your nav system knows, you know, a lot of what the local speed limit signs or what the local speed limits are and all that kind of stuff. Speaker 2: Uh, so theoretically this shouldn’t be too big of a problem, but it’s still an issue. It’s a piece of code that says like no read, sign, run. Yeah, it did it true across database to decelerate and that’s, that’s not a cool thing. God, give me my old 76 Cadillac and my eight track player and just leave me the hell alone with seal seal room hover caps. Anyway, uh, the best story of the week, this is by far I do the world TaeKwonDo foundation yes. Has changed their name. WTF is just world TaeKwonDo because they were tired of everybody trying to buy their merchandise and use their apparel because it said WTF wasn’t, it was like that when we were, when I was like 19 or 21 like around that norm. Like the Fordham university cause it was FTU and like South Carolina it was like just Cox did that. Speaker 2: Those are like, those are like the best. Everyone had those hats like when we warm to spring break and then you never warm again. Oh it was it like a guide like the university of North Texas and everybody bought the coffee cup because when you put the handle out with yeah, right, right, right, right. Oh yeah. Yeah. C C was the head and I’ll get the UNT university North. Yeah, they still sell those, don’t they? I probably, yeah, but no. So I just, I think it’s hilarious that it all right. If I were them, I would have just embraced this and run with it all day and just take the merchandise sales and run [inaudible]. All guys were selling too much merchandise. Know how. Is this a problem? What did they change it to? I can’t even see. I just world TaeKwonDo shout up. They just dropped the F. Speaker 2: I’m still pissed at the world wildlife fund by the way. They will never be the WWF to me. No of the picture of the Panda bear hitting the other church. A chair that started real quick. I’ve sent them, I’ve sent them letters like you’ve ruined wrestling. I hope you’re happy. I hope your pan does die. Yeah, I was, I was better when it first happened. I still haven’t called a WWE since a bunch of garbage, isn’t it? Just w w now WWE entertainment movies and stupid stuff. Yeah. Anyway, cause they had to prove they weren’t a sport because whatever, cause they’re soap opera for people who don’t wanna admit to us. Soap operas. It’s a soap opera for dudes who would never admit they watch soap operas. Yes. So we got that, we got that update we talked about on the Samsung phones, find my mobile and I, I didn’t wake up to it cause my phone’s downstairs when I sleep, you know, probably for the, for the better. Speaker 2: And I thought nothing of it. I thought it was weird finding my mobile. I’m like, I thought, you know, cause we’re all connected. Family plan. I’m like somebody’s lost phone, whatever, but there’s an update. I didn’t, uh, what was three last week was Samsung basically saying, um, yeah, just accidentally trigger the alert. Nothing to see here. Move along. Right. And then the story updated this week. I w w I don’t know what the update is to be honest. I like what did, what did they say? Uh, so from what I, from what I, from what I recall from the story, I believe there’s a data breach in the midst of this cause something was, something came out that you could see certain phones could see other user’s data. Yeah. But it was like random and you didn’t know whose it was, but you could see their names, phone numbers, mailing addresses, email addresses. Speaker 2: Oh, it went that far. Yeah. So I’m sure the sand and their previous orders through the Samsung store, I’m sure this will get updated more over the course of the next week, but it, it wasn’t just the, oops that Samsung originally led everyone to believe. It’s funny, I was a, there was a video of Gary V talking about how Samsung, if it wasn’t for the note catching on fire, they would like completely dominate the market. They would have owned it unequivocally. And he goes, I don’t know why they just don’t come out and innovate and make the world’s greatest phone right now and call it the Samsung fire and just own it. Just like your name, Skippy, own it. Put it to bed and just come out with the greatest phone ever and call it go. I would buy it. Yeah. As long as that FYR Edo cause that’s stupid. Speaker 2: Right. And then people would say, can people stop saying that’s so fire. By the way, I didn’t realize that was a thing until that festival documentary. Instead of saying like, that’s awesome. And some people say that’s dope. That long predates that festival does it really needs it needs to stop. Mix tape is fire that needs to do that forever. Oh my God. By the way, I’m totally non-related. Um, my desk at work, I have like one of those 120 slim Jim dispensers. So when you like you come by are like the, we get a lot of walk-ups at work and like people, Will’s got the root beer barrels the candy, like, so we were like a little little party store going on. I got the slim Jim’s and people walk by like, Hey, what’s up? And they grab a slim Jim kind of what, you know, just whatever preaching. Speaker 2: One of the guys that works with me brings over the Savage slim Jim. And he goes, dude, this cost five bucks. I go, let me see this thing. It’s, you know, the deli slim Jim’s that are like triple the slim Jim straw? No, no, it’s, no, it’s bigger. I’m really, so you know the deli ones that are like three times the size of normal, the long slung gyms, this is three times the size of those. And it’s a $5 slim gym and it’s got macho man on it and it’s a F it’s got three servings. So I go, let me see the damn, uh, this is the thing that nutrition on the side serving eight pounds of salt. Surfing’s three. No, you’ve got, um, we did the math. It was 71, 70% of your daily sodium if you ate the whole thing. So we were like egging the mind to eat the whole thing. Speaker 2: And it was the day before punchy day two. So of course, like we, you know, we smashed like three dozen punch. Good. I’m like, I can’t believe like who’s sitting? And then I go, when I started, they never heard my whole dissertation on boardroom stuff. Like who’s sitting around going, you know, I really big slim Jim. We have, let’s make one three times bigger and see if people buy it. Yeah, well sure. As shit. People are buying some gyms. Savage, slim Jims, Savage something, another website. It’s not, no, it’s got like macho man on the wrapper. I have a picture of it. It’s [inaudible]. It looks like. I like it. Those mini baseball bats they give out at Comerica park. Here we go. That’s crazy. Go ConAgra. Uh, so I’m, I, I guess, uh, you know, Kelly had virtually was the only person who died. Uh, you’ve got, uh, Larry Tesler a name that most people do not know. Speaker 2: Uh, but they know what he did. He’s the guy that invented the Tesla and paste. Oh yeah, he did read about that. So he invented, you know, control C, control V uh, you know, control and more important than that is then the cut and the copy is the invention of the clipboard, like imaginary place where data goes and you can retrieve it. Dude, I remember pre PCs when we had the typewriters and I had the three lines of digital and you could cut basically in paste and like, Oh my God, we can’t afford it for a day. And the whole selling point was we can move paragraphs. I’m like, when did I ever write a paper where I moved one paragraph above or below another one, like cut copy basis. Like we use it for a thousand different things. But that was what they sold it to be. Speaker 2: Oh, you could move Y like sentences. Like when did I ever move a sentences? Everything was all word processing. Bob. That’s, that’s all it was for. Yeah, exactly. No word. Perfect. It’s amazing. You’re steno pool will love it. One of the things, Oh my God, one of the, one of the articles that I usually, I’m a, I’m a fan of some stuff and some stuff I’m not, and this one was a kind of interesting, like, so the employees of Kickstarter, um, voted to unionize and they’re calling it a big step in tech. And I’m, I’m reading further and I’m like, okay, I’m in. Well apparently, um, 46 voted in favor, 37 opposed so there’s only like a hundred and whatever. We’ll do the math, whatever. That’s like 80, 90 employees and they’re like overjoyed by it. And somebody like wrote on LinkedIn, they’re like, wait, let me get this straight. Speaker 2: Like, you’re going to fight for higher weight is like, you’re already, you’re in tech, you’re, you’re, you’re, you’re in Silicon Valley. You’re probably higher paid than anyone ever and you’ve probably got options coming out the wazoo. What are your free lunch options aren’t good enough. Like what are you getting? You’re not getting mistreated. You’re not working out. Like what, what exactly are you doing it just business date. Like workers’ safety. You’re in tech, like, so y’all just deal with carpal tunnel syndrome, right? Like, okay, I get it. Like, where’s the, like I usually, I understand it if it’s like, okay, we’ve been mistreated, we banned or paid, but if you’re, you know, especially Silicon Valley tech, we’ve had this conversation now bajillion times, every time, you know, that they’ve talked about, uh, you know, it workers unionizing and that kind of stuff. And, and I, I don’t, especially with the, with the way the market is right now, um, like I, I understood it, you know, back when things were horrible in the it industry and, you know, and people were, you know, getting, you know, burned down to the nub, you know, they were, you know, they want, you know, they were trying to get, you know, systems architects with, you know, 20 years of experience to take a BA job. Speaker 2: You know, cause it’s all they could find and that right before a big outsourcer. And so like, I, you know, I, I got it. But like now, dude, like if you’re not happy, go down the street. It’s no joke. Every, you know, you put out a, like I asked the guys on my team and we talked all the time, how many resumes, how many recruiters hit you a week? They’re like, Oh my God, I just pulled my stuff off LinkedIn. I can’t like, what am I supposed to say? I need to be polite. Yeah, like here you got like, yeah, they kickstarted, they’re probably all making minimum buck and a half easy for like just, it’s not that, you know the work camp is what? It’s UI coding. I don’t even think like what way it goes. It’s just, it’s running servers. Right. And then 5% they’re all in the cloud. Speaker 2: They’re not doing a lot of server monitor stuff and taking 5% that’s, that’s the Kickstarter business. Go fund yourself are that’s all part? Yes. We have a thing where if your couch has been a thing, they’re like, so we can play tell people to go off your couch. So we’re making FYC we made a logo and it’s going to be for your consideration. So when we play politely say like we know we can’t for your consideration, here’s why in insight it’s going. So I just gave away the beans, didn’t I? Absolutely. If your college dude, this is weird and I guess this is one of those things that like, you don’t even think about like when, when shit gets put together, um, I guess ACEs graphics cards were like significantly overheating because they weren’t screwed down tightly enough. What? Speaker 2: Yeah. You know, the metal wasn’t making enough contact with the, to display the heat. I don’t like ACEs. Stephanie was one letter away from anus. Every time I see it, that’s all I like to see. Ane that’s why I like a company. I want her and I’m like, don’t be one letter away from any swear word or body part. We’re like, no, this screwed. Like, so it’s coming. Obviously they’re coming out of China. It’s coming out like th these things are all cheaply made, but like just loose screws, like ridiculous. It’s an imperfect world. Screws fall out all the time. Now that’s um, if you ever did business in Brazil, we had to ship servers basically without screwed together. Yeah. And basically, so you’d have to pay their VAT, you’d get, there’d be assembly plants and you would screw everything like one, two, three, four, and then save 30%. Speaker 2: But you employed people down in Brazil. I’m wondering if that’s got anything to do with that or like where they came from that does it so bizarre to me that that’s awesome. Yeah. Weird. But don’t try and tighten your screws yourself. They’ll do it under warranty. Will they? Oh. Oh, they said don’t touch it. Don’t try to tighten it. Don’t touch it. Thank you. By the way, Jif peanut butter that finally came out of the woodworks and said, we’re Jeff. They’re GIF hard. J J I disagree. The creator of the trolling graphics is hard to choose. The P in JPEG, JPEG, photo graphic J fag graphics. No, you’re J graphics. You’re a giraffe. Exact jury. No. You ever go scuba diving? Yes. Every day. Speaker 2: Nobody. What he did George, a good thing to get the peanut butter industry involved in computer, uh, acronyms. I just, I wonder how many people are going to go out and buy jars of peanut butter because that’s their whole thing is they want to, they’re releasing a limited, a limited run of ones with the different labels. Right. And it’s going to be at every UI, UX, like it software is going to have one on their desk. Yeah. Include it. Yeah. Smart. Kind of brilliant. Actually. It’s good for them. Um, I wonder if, Oh my God, I wonder if this had to, this is a thing. So we’re working, I was working on a cert ticket where mobile wasn’t, everything was working for the Apple. Certainly everything. Yeah. Everything was working except for Safari browser. So this came out, there’s a, this actually hasn’t kicked in yet. Speaker 2: It doesn’t, this, this won’t take effect until September of this year. That’s what I was wanting. A visitor said, Oh my God. But it will take, it does take an effect in September. And I do, I understand what they’re doing. Like I, I mean, I remember, you know, search could never be more than 12 months for the, for the longest time. Um, and, but you know, you’ve got a lot of ’em, uh, whether they’re self signed or super certs that are extended out, uh, you know, in some cases, two and three years. Uh, and what Apple said is, Hey, look, uh, we are not going to allow or accept, um, authentication from any certificate that’s greater than 13 months old. Wow. And I get it. And, and I like it because it does, I mean, dude, a lot change, especially in the tech industry, a lot changes in 13 months. Speaker 2: Plus nobody respects the, uh, implementation of revoking certificates. Right. You could theoretically having a two year old certificate floating around doing harm for two years. Absolutely. I honestly wonder if this was it though, because literally there was, we were having certain issues and it was people going, it shouldn’t, like I said, people weren’t going crazy trying to figure this thing out. Like I said, it shouldn’t because this isn’t supposed to take effect until September. Oh. So it should be an issue yet. I hope not. So a little close to home, you’ve got a OCC, uh, that has not only got facial recognition, facial recognition technology running on their campus, uh, but they have banned students from even talking about the fact that there is facial recognition technology running on the campus. Dude, this goes back, I, you know, some people are fans and some people aren’t, uh, uh, you know, Jordan Peterson, he’s a professor up in Canada and he’s very pointed on certain, on language being dictated to you by government. Speaker 2: And this is another one, but you can’t even talk about it. Like, or what, or what, what are you going to do from a community college? I guess from the standpoint of they couldn’t talk about it from the standpoint of they couldn’t, uh, they were trying to organize meetings, uh, and they wanted to, you know, have these groups and associations past like nine non-binding, um, you know, uh, recommendations, all that kind of stuff about it. They’re blocking, they’re blocking. The students were organizing to prevent the technology from being adopted. So they’re blocking students from even meeting. Yeah, let alone talking about it. Not, not a fan. [inaudible]. Yeah, no, I even looked, I got a, I got a kid coming up for college. I’m like, what’s college costs these days? You know, it’s been a long time. Uh, there’s still like 90 bucks a credit. Yeah. If that, you know something like, Oh, you know, you’re going to OCC for two years, kid, just like yogurt. What? You want to get a bar? Yeah. Yeah. Just like the old man did. [inaudible] none of this $80,000 debt. Oh shit. Hell no. Well, but I mean, you know, by the time she gets it, you know, Bernie Sanders will want it. It’ll all be free. So stop talking. Stop talking. What’s the deal with ’em? What did Google do to Chrome now? Because like, you’re not going to get anyone to go back to Firefox. Nobody’s going to get your internet for whatever the hell they call it these days. Speaker 3: It’s pretty good. It’s actually built on Chrome, chromium moments or Frederick Chrome is built on and built a new version of edge off of it. So they share the same underlying, but, uh, they built in the ability to deep link into a page directly, directly to a word on the page. What does that mean? So, uh, if you’re going through search results or something like that, Google can actually direct you directly to a specific word on a page instead of a built in HTML header or something like that. Speaker 2: Well, and not only that, but so the, the one thing, uh, that was kind of that they said that people were kind of getting up in arms about was the, uh, what is it, the on mouse event, uh, that they were enabling within the browser. That was just basically just further enabling a lack of privacy when you’re using that browser and how much and how much of that data is getting sent back to Google and where it’s getting sent back from. Uh, where it, it or excuse me, where it’s getting sent back to. Um, but I mean they, they’ve already kind of backed down off of it and I think they, I think they already released a patch to the patch that initiated that. If I recall correctly. If anybody’s thinking they’re getting privacy from Google, uh, go to activity.google.com and you can call me, you can call me tomorrow while I’m, we’re to the point, remember the good old days when you know the home page of Google said, you know, don’t be evil. Speaker 2: Yeah, that’s, that’s been gone for a long time. That’s been gone for a long time. Speaking of evil, we’re going to be back in a quick moment with a nother Jason Bressler and the CTO and Matt Turner, one of the head recruiters from United shore talking about a cool job fair and how, what it’s like to grow one of the biggest companies in Michigan. This is the it that he show. He’ll be right back with the capital one venture card. You weren’t an unlimited double miles on every purchase every day. And you can use those miles towards travel expenses like flights, hotels, rental cars, and more. Just book and pay for your travel, using your venture card and redeem your miles towards the cost. Capital one. What’s in your wallet? Credit approval required. Capital one, bank USA and a. Speaker 1: Hey, what’s going on? Thanks for hanging out with us. This is segment two, episode three 36 of the one and only it and the D show, broadcast and life here in studio one in podcast. He traded beautiful Royal Oak, Michigan. Bob the sales guy, Dave the geek. Randy do the Twitters is doing it. Fine it in the d.com Moira cause we are it in the D and you go. Good luck. Good luck with that. Skippy. Um, Hey, this a segment is brought to you by good friends at Vista print. Um, we have been using IB. Honestly, I’ve been using the Vista print for it in that e-cards probably since 2000 is as early as I remember them. 2009, I don’t know. Do you remember them, Randy? 2010. Um, Speaker 3: I haven’t been part of the group Speaker 1: well that long, but no, we’ve been, uh, we’ve been given, we’ve been given out cards for them and the one thing we are always worried about is that they’re paper thin or they look crappy or like the colors look stupid or the font looks stupid, but they actually look like normal business cards. You’d get it at staples and you can honestly design them yourself. And luckily we’ve been doing them, uh, like I just did the, the co branded it that he wants to like literally made up myself. Um, and order, yeah, 500 a time for, for as long as I can remember. Hey, so do us a favor. If you haven’t been to Vista print, I’m shocked if you haven’t been, you can choose whatever style finish.

Vista print.com coupon, code it in the D for free shipping. That reminds me, I need new cards and there it is. I will order them for you. But Hey, we are a, once again, we’re very, very lucky to be joined by the, the CTO of United shore and United wholesale mortgage. Mr Jason Bressler. How you doing sir? Speaker 4: Great, Bob. How are you? Speaker 1: Good, good. And to your left, mr a, is it executive tent? What’s your title these days? Do you have a different title? Like every three weeks? Recruiter? We have one of the, one of the top lead recruiters. He’s a one from United shores. All mr Matt Turner. How are you guys doing? I’m doing great and have never been better in all my life. One of the, uh, I guess we’ll, we’ll jump right into it. Um, this, this United Shore’s been on a tear lately on the news. We’ve been, they’ve been talking about, uh, number two in the entire mortgage industry above Wells Fargo, bank of America. Did. Jason, you’ve been around for a while. How did you even foresee that this was even possible coming out of a little shop? Detroit just moved to Pontiac and, you know, uh, it’s been kind of a wild ride. I mean, Speaker 4: first of all, yes, for sure. We saw that it was possible. And that was kinda the goal all along. And this isn’t our goal right now is to be number two. I’d go, our goal is to be number one. Sure, we’ll get there for sure. But yeah, I mean we’ve really, I’ve been here for about four years now and we’ve really done everything possible to get to this point. And the growth has been exponential and fantastic to see and really we support it and we do the best that we can. But you know, I mean we were again blessed with such a great CEO who’s so business-minded and does what’s right by people. And that’s really what’s kind of fueled our growth for sure. Speaker 1: No doubt. And that’s the one thing that, I mean, what are you up to now as an it department? We, you were at 700 I think. Did I hear 800 recently? Speaker 4: I think we’re, I think we’re just about 800 somewhere around there. Yeah, for sure. Speaker 1: And then, I mean, here’s the thing, you know, I, I’m sitting in meetings and there’s people saying I need a dozen people. You like, go get them. I need seven people. Go get them. Well you need to find a town. So there’s a, you know, the kind of the reasons why you guys are here is on March 4th, uh, United shore is having an it career fair. Yup. Um, I guess talk to me Matt. Um, what is I guess w here’s the thing and here’s the thing, I’m just going to point that out. Like a lot of people hate is like the cattle call environment on some of these it fairs. I guess. Talk to me about a, what you’re trying to accomplish. And B, talk to me about why this one’s going to be different. Yeah. So Speaker 5: this one, so 100% it focused. We’ve got leaders from all departments of it. So if you’ve got representatives, re-upping app dev from the engineering team, uh, support teams, and we’ve got over 700 people registered already for the events, and essentially they’re going to have the opportunity to see these leaders one-on-one, talk to them, talk to them a little bit about their experience, and possibly go into a second more intimate interview. And maybe even get offer. Speaker 1: Well that’s what, that’s the one thing where I was like, I heard that they’re like, they’re going to, you know, Hey, interviews are going to be in the, in the cafe and there, there might be offers to put on the table. Yeah. Speaker 5: Well conference rooms for deeper dive. Speaker 1: Right, right. I guess that’s new to me and I, I’ve never even seen their, Andy, I don’t know if you’ve ever seen that at job fairs. I was always, you know, thanks for your info. We’ll here’s a, here’s a postcard. Right? Yeah. Walk me through how that’s even possible. Speaker 5: I mean, last year we ran two career fairs and I think from each one we hired about 200 people in each one, but we hired some folks from it who are, you know, drove up from Findlay, Ohio and we ended up taking him aside with, uh, Mark Wallace and a couple of the other guys and, and app dev and interviewing the guy and taking them out. And he was a, you know, great developer and we ended up moving forward and to make me an offer the next day. Speaker 1: No kidding. Um, yeah, no, I guess walk me through who are you hiring? Cause I mean, here’s the thing, like we talked to architecture and all of a sudden you need seven people and uh, you know, uh, work with, uh, the cloud team. And I know you need probably four or five cloud engineers. I guess walk me through some, or what’s your biggest needs? What are the biggest hits? Is it everywhere? Is it dev? Is it, is it DevOps? Is that architecture? Is that everything? Speaker 5: Uh, I pulled the numbers before I got here and we have 299 approved opening. Is that it right now? 299, I’d say 90% of that we’re looking for experienced hires. So we’re looking for people who have a couple of years of experience professionally in creating applications or doing QA automation testing or dev ops working with tools like puppet and um, uh, Docker Coopernetti’s, um, red cloud architects. So it just, pretty much everything is, is open there. This guy just keeps shoving new openings down my throat. So Speaker 1: my job. Yeah, exactly. I mean, one of the things that, you know, we just brought, I just brought a new guy on my team and one of the things I talked to him was, you know, it’s funny, we just interviewed a guy at Ford and we asked him what he’s been doing the last four years and he said folder permissions. Yeah. And we talked to him. I go, you’re in a sincerely unique environment where like if you say tomorrow I want to work on Kubernetes around, I want to do the container stuff, containerization and we will let you, you know, if you want to go learn how to do ADFS, we’ll Google go. Like, this isn’t like there’s nothing really limited in you, I guess. You know what, talk to me about, you know, I guess managing that, like, you know, it’s, it’s a unique environment. It’s gotta be structured. By the same token, it’s loose enough where, uh, we can give to two, two employees. Speaker 4: Well, I mean, and yes we can, but the thing is from a, from an experienced team member perspective, it’s, you know, like when you were seven years old and your dad took you to, your mom took you to Cedar point, like the water park for the first time and you’re like, Oh my God, this is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen. I run around and I can do anything that I want and it’s a nice hot sunny day. And that’s like working at United shore. That really is the best way to put it from a technology standpoint. And you know, really, I’m just trying to get you in a bathing suit by buttocks waterpark. Exactly. But it’s like we had a UHF, it’s like working at a fish market, except you don’t have to clean and gut fish all day. Yeah, I mean, you really get, from a standpoint, from a, from a sandbox standpoint, whatever you want to do. Speaker 4: And you know, if you have interest in something, and I know we talk about this all the time, but if you have an interest and a desire and you’re going to hold yourself accountable and be held accountable by other people, then we’ll actually put you where you want to go and what your interests are. As long as you’re, you’re, you’re a good, good fit, you’re all in for UWM, you’re all in for it, you’re all in for the team. If that happens we’ll let kind of let your run where you want to run cause we want to keep you here for the rest of your life. And so you know, we want to make sure that you’ve really, everybody feels fulfilled. Sure. And you, I guess you just had a big switch where you don’t have the team leads managing just BAS, right? You did it like a cross environment thing. Speaker 4: How did, I guess walk me through the process on saying like did you, is this feedback you’re getting and you’re just transforming on the fly because you know it’s kind of a big step. So it was a big step. And this is this from an application development standpoint. And so about four years ago when I came here, we were what I’d call cross functional teams. So it’s one leader kind of leading a team of developers and BAS and QA and scrum masters. And you know, from, from that standpoint and as we got here, we had so many good people that we really succeeded almost in spite of ourselves. And I mean that in the best way possible. It was, we were moving so fast, even four years ago, we needed to take a step back if we were really going to scale and say, Hey, for us to take our team and our technology team and UWM to the next level, we’ve got to take a step back and actually focus on the disciplines. Speaker 4: And so we went to a matrix model and so we had developer leads and BA leads and QA leads and PO leads. And we kind of like set a true structure and a new SDLC and a new framework of what we were going to do. And as we continue to progress and grow. And we got new leaders in, we got a lot of experience. The time was right for us to go back to cross functional teams with the right leaders kind of leading those teams. And so now we’re really focused on incremental delivery and you know, really delivering as fast as we possibly can, our end product. Um, and then giving all the control. And this is, you know, from the dev ops standpoint, giving all the control back to the teams and letting them kinda run in their own environment with their own SDLC and their own gate checks and making sure that they’re responsible for their own work. And that’s really what I think every application development team wants. And so that’s, I, that’s another good point you bring up like moving fast. Like I don’t think people realize how, when you say moving fast, how fast that is. Like you were, I think the last time you were on, you talked about the CIO symposium, you spoke out where like people are Speaker 1: talking about dev cycles at nine months and you kind of laughed and yeah. But I mean, when you talk about moving fast, I guess walk me through what’s, what’s your expectations? Speaker 4: It’s a little hard, but my, I mean I would say my expectations are, we should, so if we have sprints that are two weeks and you know, I mean we should be planning properly and we should be deploying and we should, you know, be accountable for what we do during that timeframe. But when I say move fast, I mean I want to, we were in a very unique situation where we only have one client and that client is the business, the business of UWM. And so we make sure that we do everything on a dime and when the business says we want to change this and we want to do it now, it’s why we write all of our own software. It’s why we try to stay completely vendor agnostic. And if we could not use vendors at any point from a technology standpoint is because we don’t want to be bound to anything that we do. So when I say move fast, it’s, Hey Bob, if I need to make a change today, then within 24 hours I’d like that written. I’d like a user story out. I want it developed, I want to test it and then I want to make sure that it goes through through all the gate checks and then it gets deployed into, in new production that quickly. Sure. Speaker 1: Um, and I think that’s one of the things we’re not, when I, when I see the things I see everyday is like the growing pains of being in an organization that we didn’t plan on being a huge enterprise. I’ll just go kind of shifting it to, to enterprise technology. You know, you weren’t on the radar for the Cisco’s and the peers and the Microsoft, right. Like a year and a half year, year and a half ago. And now you are, you know, they want to fly you out to San Jose to go to the vet. You know, the management meetings. They want you to, you know, you’re an enterprise client, they want you to have weekly meetings. And you know, I guess is, is that a, is that a good thing or did you like flying under the radar? Speaker 4: Uh, I love flying under the radar. I think that’s the best way to do it. Um, um, at the end of the day, I hate attention and I would like to stay as humble as we possibly can. And I mean that from even an enterprise technology standpoint. And the only way that you can really move very quickly is to make sure that nobody really cares what you do until they expect you to do the best all the time. And that’s really where we are right now. And so from an enterprise technology standpoint, we’ve really, you know, and, and, and again, you’re, you’re a Testament to this is once you find the right people and you can drive and motivate and cultivate the right environment and you work in a, in an environment where we basically say, if it makes sense, go do it. Yeah. So get out right now by what you need to do, get the licensing and try it. And if it works, let’s continue to build off of it. And if it doesn’t, just learn from it really quickly and then tell us what’s next. Speaker 1: I’ve never seen it in my life like that. Like you need to go pee. Oh, you need to go get that. Go ahead, go get it. It’s to me it’s like not insane, but it’s go, you need a tool, you need to go get it. You know, you can’t hit good out of the sand, go buy yourself a decent sandwich. Like, you know. Um, but yeah, the just seeing the, the what the, I wouldn’t even call it a trial and error. It’s, it’s go get what you need to get. Um, how do you, how do you want to, you know, the business is uptime for us. Sure. Um, you know, we need our customers Speaker 4: on all that. Cause that’s the one, the one thing that was eyeopening to me is, you know, Hey, we’re 30, 32 35% of the market for wholesale mortgages. When we go down, the market goes down, industry goes down the industry. Right. And it’s like living with that on your shoulders. I mean, you know, the, the stupid cliche is, Hey Jason, what keeps you up at night? Yeah, exactly. But that’s got a way on you. I mean, have you as the head that wears the crown. And that’s the thing is, you know, like we’re supporting so many brokers, tens of thousands of brokers across the country where we do all of this and we give it to them because we really think that they’re a better option for consumers. Like we are legitimately trying to do the right thing. And so when you do that, and it’s a being a product of your own success, when you get so successful at delivering quality software and quality technology to people that could never afford it or didn’t even know what it was, when, when, when you go down there, whole world’s over, they have no idea what to do. Speaker 4: And so we have to always be up all the time and always be 10 steps ahead of the game to make sure that we’re on top of that. And that’s one of the things, from an enterprise technology standpoint, it’s really easy to get seduced by the newest thing or what’s next or somebody chirping in your ear of, Hey, you should try this. Well that’s a th that’s why flying under the radar is such a better thing because when you got a clear roadmap and you’ve got a clear vision and you stick to it, then those ancillary things just kind of pop in and out as it happens instead of everybody just chasing whatever the next big thing. So, you know, we don’t chase whatever the next big thing is. We are the next big thing. And so we kind of dictate what we want to do and then we let people kind of fit into that model. Speaker 4: So what’s a, so here’s the big thing is the AME conferences see what is association of independent mortgage brokers or whatever last a year that were a few months ago. Actually, I think it was like a, but it was brand three 60 was kind of like an automated marketing engine for, for brokers, right? Um, this year, the big plans for, I know we can’t talk about it, but [inaudible] are you excited about what’s coming out? Absolutely. I mean, it’s going to be huge for the industry. It’s going to be absolutely massive for our broker partners and we’re really excited. We’ve been working on it for awhile and we’re really excited to release it at aim for sure. Yeah. No, I, I mean Tiffany had said, I mean, uh, you know, the, the one thing I wanted to talk about, I think it’s funny now that I’m a on the other end of the stick on LinkedIn and it’s amazing to me how bad salespeople are and I’m getting these messages. Speaker 4: It’s like looking at yourself in the mirror. I’ve, I’ve, I, I was never that bad. Like that’s true. I did get asked, can you introduce me to Jason Bressler was, and you are connected to him on LinkedIn. I’m like, yeah, but it’s, it’s, I wish there would be a class to like, you know, I would like to talk to you how to, how we could have helped other companies such as United shore with their automation needs. It’s like, do you ever see a, there’s a thing called deck.com the bullshit generator now and uh, it was like from the dotcom days, but it still exists and it was like every press release written in like 2002 to 2004 hit this button and it was like synergize E platform. Uh, you know, and it was the, one of the funniest things. This is the crap that I get Speaker 1: to me. Like I can’t believe every four day, I can’t imagine what you have to go, how many voicemails you have to delete every day. Speaker 4: I don’t even get through the voicemails and even the LinkedIn messages are basically for the most part, if they’re like that they’re deleted. I do occasionally, and I almost hate to say, cause we’ll see what happens from it. But I did get, somebody sent me an iPad with a full customized message, which it was fantastic of me, my history, full blown iPad, full blown iPad with, and it just said press play. And I press play. And it was this, it was a sales woman and she went on, she knew everything about me, everything about my history, everything about UWM, how we grew, what we did. And basically was like, Hey, we just want to help. So all I’m asking you to do is just call back and just let us talk to you. And at that point, how do you not, right? Like how do you not, when somebody takes that kind of care and time to do something that’s not like the RC car and you’re like, call me and I’ll give you the remote. Yeah, I remember those days. That was fun. When I got my first one in that there was such a mistake to call back. Do you ever get a pair of shoes? I never got a pair of shoes. I just want to get my foot in the door. Speaker 1: Ah, so Matt just, uh, uh, I guess, you know, we talked a little bit about, um, the, you know, the hiring spree and needing to hire, I want to talk to you about how you’ve hired, we went and we went through some numbers on all the people that talent is brought through. Like hiring three, you know, there’s goals down here, 3000 people at your, how many did you hire in 2019? The team, Speaker 5: the team, uh, 3000, 27. Speaker 1: So how, how so I see you all walking around giving you, so you don’t just, this isn’t just a cheap interview. You, you’re doing tours, you’re meeting, you know, the leads. How do you hire and you don’t have that huge of a team. It’s a decent size team. But like how do you go about hiring that many people? Speaker 4: Wow. That’s a question. Open ended, you know. Exactly. Speaker 5: Um, so you know, as you mentioned, the team size, so everyone, including the associate recruiters who are supporting the recruiters and the leaders, all of us total out to about 40 people, which were added throughout last year. So you’ve got to be really creative with how you move forward through these processes. And I think we have a really solid leadership team from uh, the talent leadership. So they came up with a couple ideas like doing, interviewing blitzes, uh, the late afternoon hours for some of these positions like underwriting and closing, uh, where we’re willing to train people and we’re looking for them to have a certain level of excellent expectations for their education. But they’ll bring them in and we’ll take them through, we’ll give them a full tour of the building, go through all the benefits with them, take them through a screen, make sure they’re a fit for that. Speaker 5: And in terms of it, we did the two career fairs last year, which we netted a few people but you know, specifically to it. So a lot of grinding. So company-wide we have about, I wish I had the number off the top of my head, but it’s right around between 55 and 60% of our hires under being referrals. So the referral process is huge for us. And that’s something we’ve tried to increase incentives, increase our incentives in this year with the new referral program where if you refer somebody and then they refer somebody, it kind of trickles back up to you. So that’s, that’s a big, big area for us. And the only way you get referrals is if people enjoy working for your competition. So it says a lot about United shore as a whole, being that over half the people we hire end up being referred in by people who work there. Speaker 1: And that’s the biggest challenge I see in, in it recruitment. And I don’t know how you guys filter it out, but we see like, you know, they have all the certs, they check all the boxes, they, they’ve done the, they, they list off everything that they’re looking for. Then you get them in a room and ask them a question and they’re like, well no, I didn’t really work on that. Or like you have it written down right here. It’s on your skill. You know, I guess obviously it’s frustrating, but how do you filter through that? Speaker 5: Yeah. So we, I think we have some really good efficient processes set up at this point. Obviously we’re always trying to improve them, make them better and make them easy as possible and the candidate. So I’ll give you an example. Um, from the app dev side, when we’re interviewing experienced and that candidates were, I’m going to talk to them, find out what they’re looking for, um, why they’re looking to leave a job, the basic recruiting questions, and then we’re gonna dive into some high level object oriented questions. And I’m going to kind of figure out, you know, what does this person using on a day to day basis? I don’t want to grill them super hard, but they’re, if their salary expectations are at a certain level and they’re not able to answer some pretty basic questions, you kinda get the sense from there. And so, um, one thing we’ve done to make it easier on the candidate, once we go through that data and gather that we actually use an online code assessment tool, which has, uh, for this, for their net positions, there’s an hour time limit on it. Speaker 5: So basically two questions. So write out your code and C sharp, we want to be able to review it and we’re not really as concerned about you getting, you know, all 20 test cases right on it. But we want to understand how you solve the problem and why you want through it that way even if you didn’t get all of them. Um, and then we’d bring you in for a face to face interview. That’d be about an hour and a half of your time. So really on the candidate side, it’s an hour and a half of their time. We get all that screening before they go to the leadership team. So I’ve got a code assessment, I’ve got my high level, uh, object oriented questions, I know their salary info and everything else and we can determine before investing too much time to that person. Is this the right fit? Speaker 1: Yeah. It’s funny, I just got brought into a, the Bax interviews in the BA. If you don’t know what that is, the BA, it’s kind of like an entry level to be a move into a business analyst role. And it’s funny to me like half the people like, here’s a math problem. I want you to figure this out. Don’t have a pen or paper. Um, here’s a, I want you to put together, I want to see how you, you know, and then you know, halfway through, Oh my God, I’m so frustrated. Like, you know, just internalize that. You know what I mean? It’s just funny to me. Not funny, but it’s just like, it’s one on one stuff and you know, I mean I will respond Speaker 3: pressure differently though. So, you know, some people aren’t good test takers, they’re not going to do well under pressure for like, Hey, write these 20 test cases in an hour. Is it because they don’t test well they don’t get the job or is it, you know, something you take into consideration like, you know, personality wise, like, uh, you know, you leaving them in a room with an assignment, they’re good. You say, Hey, you’ve got an hour to finish this and all of a sudden, you know, they’re shut down because they’re worried about the pressure. Speaker 5: Well with the, with the, with the coding test that’s done on their own time and at their own

Pink Sheet reporters discuss the US FDA's launch of its Project Orbis collaboration, the agency's call for comments on the development of abuse-deterrent formulations for central nervous system stimulants and the new Rare Disease Cures Accelerator.
Currently there are more than a dozen abuse deterrent formulations (ADF) on the market, and several formulations that have abuse deterrent properties but do not carry the official FDA designation. This session will highlight what constitutes an ADF, and the benefits, pitfalls, and drawbacks for prescribing ADF opioid products. The ADF product is novel, expensive, and unproven by category 4 status to have a real-world impact on curtailing opioid abuse. While abuse deterrent opioid formulations purportedly meet the FDA demand for safer opioid medications, the expense of these new medications is rarely supported by third-party insurance payers. Consequently, the practitioner is faced with the FDA stating that ADF opioid medications should be considered, yet the patient’s insurance often will not pay for new ADF medications, and there are no corresponding generic medications available. Drs. Schatman and Fudin will highlight data to support ADF use, discuss the lack of evidence to support their use, and the ethical dilemmas associated with prescribing or withholding ADFs from the standpoint of practitioners, patients, and third-party payers.
Authentifizierung ist der Kern einer jeden Anwendung. Im Fall Office 365 bzw. Azure gibt es im Wesentlichen zwei Möglichkeiten - ADFS oder Azure AD (mit oder ohne Sync). Wann was Sinn mach, einfach reinhören. Die folgenden AD Attribute werden nach US repliziert (bei Azure AD und AAD Connect, sofern es sich um einen EU Tenant handelt): The following identity-related attributes will be replicated to the United States: - GivenName - Surname - userPrincipalName - Domain - PasswordHash - SourceAnchor - AccountEnabled - PasswordPolicies - StrongAuthenticationRequirement - ApplicationPassword - PUID Fragen und Anregungen gerne an podcast@hobmaier.net
We talk about Azure AD Connect: Pass-through Authentication and Windows PowerShell Desired State Configuration. The go through why small companies should look into Azure AD Connect: Pass-through Authentication and cut down on their server park if ADFS is not needed for some other applications.

This week's podcast covers such controversial subjects as ADFS with Office 365 PowerShell, MFA with Exchange Online PowerShell, and Office 365 nearly starting a war. Then Todd goes on a rant about why he doesn't like a certain Gizmo site.
I dag skal jeg snakke om Skype For Business. Skype For Business er lidt lige som OneDrive For Business. Det er et produkt der har skiftet navn nogle gange de sidste 5 år. Først hed Communicator, eller Office Communicator. Så hed det Lync og nu hedder det Skype For Business. Jeg er lidt bange for at det er marketingsafdelingen i Microsoft der forsøger at blande nogle brandingnavne sammen for at se om det giver en mere genkendelig effekt. De har sikkert haft nogle fokusgrupper til at fortælle dem at det giver god mening. Desværre er min mening at det forvirrer mere end det gavner. Ligesom med Onedrive For Business, så har Skype For Business ikke ret meget med Skype at gøre. Og så alligevel lidt mere end først antaget. Jeg stiller dem lige op og sammenligner lidt. Login på SkypeFB er det samme som dit Office 365 login. Har du ADFS sat op, ja så er dit Office365 login så det samme som dit AD-login, hvilket vil sige at når du er logget på din computer er du logget på Office365 og Skype FB. Den åbenlyse fordel er selvfølgelig at med Skype For Business kan du snakke sammen med folk der "kun" er på almindelig Skype. Der er nogle begrænsninger når du krydser Business med almindelig skype. F.eks. har jeg oplevet en del problemer med at dele indhold på tværs af platformene. Og jeg har også oplevet en del problemer, hvis du skal lave en kald med f.eks. 3 brugere og den ene er almindelig skype. Så virke det ikke rigtig. Men normalt en-til-en samtaler, fungere rigtig fint på tværs af platformene. Det er også en ret ny ting, så jeg er sikker på at der er nogle krøller hist og her der skal rettes ud, før Microsoft får det til at være en problemfri oplevelse. Jeg vil sige at jeg bruger selv begge programmer, da jeg er tvunget til at bruge almindelig Skype nogle få gange om måneden. Men ellers så er min Skype Bor Business min primære kommunikationsplatform ud over telefon og e-mail. Skype For Business snakker sammen med din Office 365 (Hvis man lige regner med at det er der du har den, man kan nemlig også får sin egen Skype For Business server og installere den lokalt og så få den til at snakke sammen med sin lokale Exchange og SharePoint). Sidespor.. Men den snakker sammen med din Office 365 på den måde at hvis du f.eks. har booket en masse ting i din outlook kalender, så læser SkypeFB din kalender og sætter automatisk din status herefter. Hvis du er i gang med at brose rundt på SharePoint og ser hvem der har uploadet et dokument, så kan du med det samme se deres status direkte i SharePoint og hvis du klikker på det rød/gul/grønne ikon, ud for deres navn, så kan du også se hvornår denne person er ledig eller hvornår personens næste møde er. Kort sagt den kigger også i kalenderen på den valgte person, inde fra SharePoint. På den måde er Skype For Business integreret i Office 365, ved at den holder øje med alles kalendre og derefter angiver deres status, enten i skype eller på din kontaktliste. Med SkypeFB kan du f.eks. også optage dine møder. Også video hvis du deler indhold. Så hvis du holder et møde, så kan du lige optage mødet og når det er færdigt, så kan du sende optagelsen til deltagerne. Skal du lave referater af møder, er det altid nemmere at se videoen efterfølgende for at være sikker på du har fanget alt korrekt, eller se efter om du har forstået det hele som det var ment. Med SkypeFB kan du planlægge møder, direkte fra Outlook. Hvis du f.eks. planlægger et onlinemøde, så får du et virtuelt møderum, hvor du på forhånd kan uploade dokumenter og powerpoint, mødedeltagerne kan downloade. Når mødet starter, kan du have en lobby folk skal igennem, før de får adgang til mødet. Det kan være en rigtig god ting, hvis det er et offentligt møde, hvor du har lagt linket til mødedeltagelsen på dit website. Det kan også være det er et lukket møde og så du bare skal bruge det virtuelle møderum til at præsentere et produkt for nogle potentielle købere. Så er det rart at kunne uploade en powerpoint og derefter sætte den i gang på deltagernes skærm, og samtidig optage din præsentation, samt deltagernes spørgsmål. Så kan man meget nemmere evaluere efterfølglende. Du kan selvfølgelig også tillade eller forbyde ekstern kontakt med din SkypeFB, så du kan have partnere, kunder osv. på din kontaktliste og de kan se din status. Du kan selv vælge om de skal have adgang til alle detaljer i din kalender, eller om de bare skal kunne se om du er optaget eller ledig. Når du åbner for ekstern kommunikation, kan du dog angive et eller flere domæner som skal blokeres. Det kan f.eks. være hvis du ikke er interesseret i at dine medarbejdere snakker eller bliver kontaktet af konkurrenten, eller andre domæner. Skal du nu kontakte nogle personer der IKKE har SkypeFB eller almindelig skype, så har de den mulighed at når de modtager invitationen, så kan de bruge en webklient til at følge med i indholdet. Har du mod på det og har en organisation der har behovet, så kan du koble SkypeFB sammen med en telefonservice, der tillader at man ringer ind til det enkelte SkypeFB møde. Så man på den måde kan deltage via telefon. Det er rigtig givtigt hvis man f.eks. allerede har en masse mødetelefoner sat op i sin organisation. Ud over de her ting så er al kommunikation til og fra SkypeFB krypteret. P.T. er krypteringen 256 bit, hvilket skulle være rigeligt til at holde diverse medlyttere fra det du enten skriver, snakker eller deler. Så indtil videre med Skype FB kan du: Integreret login Snakke med alle Skype brugere Bruge både Skype og SkypeFB på samme maskine Skifte status automatisk ud fra din Outlook kalender og se det i outlook, sharepoint og selvf. skype Optage dine møder Planlægge møder med materiale der kan downloades af deltagerne Låse SkypeFB af til udelukkende intern brug eller åbne for fri kommunikation, samtidig med at enkelte domæner blokeres Ringe ind til et møde Krypteret kommunikation i både tale, tekst og visuel, via TLS (Transport Layer Security) SHA-256. Del skrivebord og overtag styring af andres skrivebord (integreret supportfunktion) Gem din chathistorik automatisk i Outlook (dvs. din Exchange konto) Hvor meget af disse ting kan du så med en almindelig Skype? Selvstændigt login der ikke hænger sammen med dit AD eller Office 365. Dvs. endnu et brugernavn og apssword der skal huskes. Du kan snakke med Skypebrugere og SkypeFB brugere Du kan ikke skifte status automatisk Du kan ikke se status i Outlook eller SharePoint Du kan optage dine samtaler men det kræver 3. parts programmer. Du kan ikke planlægge møder og du kan ikke have op til 250 deltagere i samme møde. Du kan dog have op til 25 på det samme kald. Du kan ikke låse dine medarbejderes kommunikation til kun at være intern eller til at blokere uønsket domæner Du kan ringe til en anden skypebruger fra din telefon, hvis de har SkypeOut. Men spørg mig ikke om det virker godt eller skidt. Har aldrig prøvet det. Kommunikationen er vist også krypteret men kun Skype til Skype og bruger AES 265 bit kryptering, ikke TLS. Jeg er ikke sikkerhedsekspert, men TLS, skulle være et lag dybere så det er selve forbindelsen der er krypteret og ikke kun indholdet ovenpå forbindelsen. Har du Office 365, så er det blot et spørgsmål om at sætte din DNS rigtigt op og så installere Skype FB. Så får du en seriøs forretningsorienteret kommunikationsplatform. Men den skal bare lige sættes op. Primært er det SkypeFB (tidligere kaldet Lync) designet til kommunikation med andre SkypeFB klienter. Kommunikation og integreret "free/busy" information. Men sådan er det med alle online kommunikationsmidler. De er aldrig 100% stabile. Skype går ned, mobilnettet har ikke dækning overalt og wifi'en svigter. Det er alt sammen en del af vores teknologiske hverdag og den er ikke perfekt. Men den bliver bedre hele tiden. Og specielt online kommunikationsværktøjer som Skype og Skype for Business. Deres oppetider, lydkvalitet og funktionalitet bliver bedre og bedre. Og infrastrukturen der skal understøtte HD-lyd, billede og video bliver også mere og mere stabil.Vil du læse mere om Skype For Business og de enkelte planer så kan du finde et link til Microsofts side: https://products.office.com/en-us/skype-for-business/compare-plans Er du interesseret i sikkerheden omkring SkypeFB så kan du læse mere her: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/skype-for-business-online-security-and-archiving.aspx TLS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security
Forvirringen er total Langt de fleste forventer at OneDrive For Business er det samme som OneDrive, med lidt flere muligheder. I virkeligheden har de 2 ting intet med hinanden at gøre. OneDrive: Personligt online harddiskplads OneDrive For Business: SharePoint Harddiskplads, der tillader hvert enkelt medlem af dit team at dele og arbejde med dokumenter. Fordi det bruger SharePoint, er der også adgang til flere administrationsmuligheder Plads P.T. (det kan hurtigt ændre sig): OneDrive: 15GB. ODFB: 1TB Brug af OneDrive Brug af OneDrive er nemt. Der er ikke de store udfordringer. Det er simpelt og enkelt. Der er altid nogle ting der kan være irreterende. Du kan f.eks. Ikke uploade en hel mappe med filer direkte via WebSitet. Der bliver du nød til at oprette mappen manuelt og derefter uploade dine filer. Der er selvfølgelig også en synkroniseringklient du kan downloade og bruge til at arbejde med dine filer. Der har så den bonus at du har offline adgang til dine dokumenter. Til gengæld kan du lave nogle fede ting med OneDrive. Versionering af dokumenter og gendannelse af tidligere verioner af dit dokument eller fil. Indlejring (Embed) af Office filer. Du kan få koder til at indlejre dit billede eller dokument direkte på en HTML side på nettet. Lidt det samme som man kan med DropBox. Der er naturligvis integration med Office-pakken, så du kan gemme direkte på dit OneDrive. Brug af OneDrive for Business OneDrive For Business er SharePoint. Tidligere kendt som MySites. Hvis du har din egen SharePoint Farm installeret, har du lokal OneDrive For Business. Men for de fleste er det på Office 365 af det er interessant. OneDrive For Business er I bund og grund en synkroniseringsfeature bliver tilbudt med SharePoint. Det betyder at synkroniseringen ikke er den samme som OneDrive. Du kan med OneDrive For Business-synkronisering vælge at både synkronisere dit OneDrive For Business samtidig med at du synkronisere forskellige SharePoint dokumentbiblioteker. OneDrive For Business er meget kort, et SharePoint Dokumentbibliotek, der er placeret på et personligt SharePoint WebSted, der igen er placeret på en personlig "Gruppe af websteder", også kaldet SiteCollection. Synkroniseringensklienten til OneDrive For Business er for nylig også ankommet til Mac. Den har jeg testet og jeg vil allerede nu kraftigt fraråde dig til at bruge den til noget seriøst. Den er stadig meget ustabil og laver en helt del synkroniseringsfejl. Microsoft får forhåbentlig snart udgivet en ny og mere stabil Mac-udgave. Sikkerheden I OneDrive kan du vælge imellem "Rediger" eller "Læs" rettigheder I OneDrive For Business kan du selv lave dine egene rettighedsniveauer samt forskellige grupper. I OneDrive For Business kan du sætte den op til at man skal tjekke et dokument ud, inden det kan redigeres. På den måde kan du sikre dig at der ikke er nogen der kan redigere I dit dokument, eller se det, før du er helt færdig. Når du er tilfreds med dit dokument kan du derefter tjekke dokumentet ind og en ny udgave af dokumentet vil være tilgængeligt for dit team, eller virksomhed. Mobiladgang er der naturligvis til både OneDrive og ODFB Multi-faktor godkendelse Der er naturligvis mulighed for to-faktor godkendelse på begge platforme. OneDrive: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/two-step-verification-faq OneDrive For Business: https://blogs.office.com/2014/02/10/multi-factor-authentication-for-office-365/ SSO (Single Sign-On) OneDrive: Nej OneDrive For Business: SSO via ADFS og PassWordSync. Begge bruger DirSync programmet [box type="info"] ADFS: Dine brugere bliver automatisk logget på ODFB eller Office 365, via det lokale AD, der bliver synkroniseret med Office365. Læs mere om det her: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/jj631606.aspx[/box] [box type="info"] Password-sync: Dine brugere bliver ikke logget på automatisk, men deres lokale password, bliver synkroniseret til Office 365 og vil derfor virke til ODFB. Læs mere om det her https://blogs.office.com/2014/04/15/synchronizing-your-directory-with-office-365-is-easy[/box] Revision og rapportering Med OneDrive For Business og SharePoint kan du få sat Revision og Rapportering op, så det er mulgit at få rapporter på hvad der bliver foretaget på din SharePoint platform. Om det så er OneDrive For Business eller alm. SharePoint. Så har du mulighed for at se om der er brugere der misbruger systemet, eller bare bruger det rigtig meget.. Eller måske glimrer ved deres fravær. Der er så mange andre ting du kan med OneDrive For Business og SharePoint som slet ikke kan sammenlignes med OneDrive. Så opsummeret er OneDrive kun til privat formål og lige så snart du vil bruge det til din virksomhed, så få dine data ind I OneDrive For Business eller SharePoint Online. Priser …alt (eller meget) afhænger jo også af hvad det koster. OneDrive giver dig 15 GB gratis men du kan P.T. tilkøbe mere plads: 15 GB Gratis 100 GB kr. 14,00 pr. måned 200 GB kr. 28,00 pr. måned Vil du have mere plads end det, så skal du op I OneDrive For Business, hvor du får 1TB (1000 GB) for kr. 54,99 https://onedrive.live.com/about/da-dk/plans/ Når det kommer til hvilken Office 365 plan du vil have så er der rigtig mange at vælge imellem. https://products.office.com/da-dk/buy Er du en virksomhed og har du problemet med at vælge så vil jeg meget kraftigt anbefale dig at få noget rådgivning inden du vælger en plan. Det kan jeg hjælpe dig med eller du kan selvfølgelig google din nærmeste Office 365 forhandler. Opsummering: OneDrive er til privat brug OneDrive For Business er til hvervsbrug, men kan også godt bruges privat Spørgsmål I dag vil jeg lige besvare et spørgsmål, jeg allerede har fået ind på mailen. Kan jeg bruge mit OneDrive For Business til min TimeMachine Backup? Det korte svar her er: nej. Det lidt længere svar er Måske Det rigtige svar er, ja.. Det kan du godt, men det kræver en NAS boks, og det kræver at du ikke er bange for at pille ved indstillingerne. Så hvis du kun har en Mac og måske en ekstern harddisk som du bruger til TimeMachineBackups, så kan du sådan set blot installere OneDrive App'en og derefter angive dit OneDrive mappe til at være den samme mappe som dit TimeMachine Mappe.. Men pas på, fordi OneDrive For business App'en til Mac er stadig ret ustabil og er et ressourcebæst af den anden verden. Virker ikke på din lokale computer da OneDrive ikke kan synkronisere mapper på eksterne drev. Har forsøgt med alias til drev, genveje mv. Men det har jeg ikke rigtig held med. Backup til OneDrive For Business via NAS Hvis du har en QNAP (Sikkert også Synolygy og andre) NAS bokse kan du installere alle mulige moduler/apps på den. Nogle leverandører har allerede apps, der kan synkronisere dit google-drev med din NAS og hvad jeg kan finde hos blandt andet QNAP så er der en app på vej, der kan synkronisere dit OneDrive For Business med din NAS. Og siden Microsoft har været ude og annoncere at der ikke længere vil blive sat indholdsbegrænsninger på OneDrive For Business i forhold til forbrug, så åbner det jo muligheden for at have en kopi af din backup placeret i skyen. Ulemper: Filstørrelse per fil må P.T. være omkring 250 mb. Og det er ikke så meget hvis du har dit backup som én stor fil. Du er afhængig af en synkroniseringsapp og ikke en upload app. Sync apps er designet til at ændre et par filer af ganngen og ikke uploade flere GB af gangen. Erfaringsmæssigt kan jeg godt forudse nogle tilfælde med synkroniseringsproblemer. Fordele: Du får gratis storage med i din office 365 plan, som kan bruges til en offsite kopi af din backup. Det er en service du normalt skal betale for. Men den er gratis og den er ikke designet til office-kopi af din backup. Så vær varsom med hvad du forventer.
While at Tech Ed 2014, Richard chat with John Craddock about the latest incarnation of Active Directory Federation Services - don't call it version three, it's the Windows Server 2012 R2 version! John discusses some of the new features of ADFS, including it's integration with oAuth2 to allow a more lightweight approach to authentication, authorization and federation. Lots of great thinking from one of the best minds in identity!

Richard chats with Microsoft Premier Field Engineer Kamal Abburi about his experiences putting together hybrid implementations of Exchange and Office 365. The conversation starts out focusing on why Exchange in the Cloud at all, and the challenges of making a full migration to Office 365. Kamal mentions some of the regulatory hurdles that some countries put in place requiring some mailboxes to remain in the country of origin. He then digs into the challenge of hybrid implementations, covering the role of ADFS in creating a single sign-on experience, challenges with security and how to do seamless migrations of mailboxes. In the end it appears that hybrid deployment is going to be the most common model used, especially going forward into the next version of Exchange! Check out Office 365 and the Office 365 Deployment Guide.
Richard talks to Steve Syfuhs at TechDays Toronto about IT Pros providing security services for developers using Active Directory Federated Services. IT and development talking to each other willingly? Perish the thought! But in truth, Steve makes it clear that ADFS provides a great wrapper for developers to access active directory or any other service that has security claims that an application might require. Azure depends on it, even Office 365 can take advantage of ADFS. Steve discusses how IT can work with developers to make the jobs of both groups easier.

Richard flies solo to talk to Laura Hunter, now working at Microsoft IT about the identity infrastructure at Microsoft. Laura talks about the scale of the identity problem at Microsoft, the challenges of using smart cards instead of passwords (the passwords won). The conversation moves on to talking about identification in general, talking about different ways of recognizing users, the shared authentication via twitter, facebook, etc. Ultimately Richard and Laura end up back at ADFS and how cloud technology is facilitating the adoption of ADFS and claims-based security.
Richard and Greg talk to Sean Deuby about issues around identity in the cloud. The conversation explores both the consumer and enterprise aspects of identity in the cloud. Where Facebook and Google are helping things for consumers, the needs of the enterprise are more complex. The acronyms come out - oAuth, OpenID, ADFS and more!
