I didn't catch Santa, but I did catch a fox this morning as I was about to let Comet out.
Was able to get a grainy, Bigfoot like pic.

Comet has fulfilled his namesake role once again. Presents are delivered.
Santa sweater is just a bonus. Merry Christmas!

Microsoft is rolling out baseline security recommendations to #Microsoft365 tenants. Like any set of recommendations, it's wise to review settings before putting them into practice.

A year ago I lost one of my oldest friends. He was recovering from surgery and doing well. Then he was gone.
1. Screen for cancer. Take your health seriously.
2. Be a bother. Check on friends and family.
Here's to having 1 more beer, #Packers game, and Sunday flag football game.
Miss you buddy!

New post: focusing on the key biggest Microsoft 365 security considerations.

When we talk about Microsoft 365 security, we are talking about two things: (a) securing Microsoft 365 the platform, (b) using Microsoft 365 security tooling.
Microsoft 365: The Essential 10 Security Considerations - Ru Campbell MVP
When we talk about Microsoft 365 security, we are talking about two things: The latter can be used to achieve the former, as well as other (non-Microsoft 365) platforms. For example, using Defender for Endpoint on a Linux server in AWS, or using Entra for single sign on to Salesforce. Given its omnipresence in enterprise IT, Microsoft 365 security’s vastness (and value) needs to be front-of-mind for all tenant administrators. The Essential 10 is…

Managing #Intune doesn’t have to feel complicated, I promise. 😊

If I could start my career over, step one would be to learn #PowerShell. Step two would be to attend conferences.

Snag your spot for one of the best conferences around!
In my opinion, #PSHSummit 2026 boasts the best speaker lineup and schedule since 2019. There is no better place to learn PowerShel & DevOps-related content in North America than at this event.

Tickets are on sale now, and you'd be doing your career a disservice by not attending.

If you're interested in moving from ClickOps to #DevOps and missed @donnietaylor.bsky.social's session at #MMSMusicCity, you can still practice your #IaC skills with the #terraform and #azure code samples on Donnie's GitHub: tinyurl.com/ClickOps2Dev...

My personal favorite is drift detection :)
