Join us for Security Awareness Virtual Summit on May 5th 2020

Hosted by Terranova Security and sponsored by Microsoft, keynote by Gartner. 

 

Aware and vigilant end users are key to unlocking the full potential of your security technologies. Any part of your cybersecurity strategy that involves users—whether its data protection or email security—depends on your users’ security awareness, engagement, and alertness. To truly protect our organizations, we must not only empower our colleagues to protect themselves but also build an organizational culture that prioritizes security.

Microsoft 365 & SharePoint PnP Weekly – Episode 79

Microsoft 365 & SharePoint PnP Weekly – Episode 79

pnpweekly-episode-79.png

In this weekly discussion of latest news and topics around Microsoft 365, hosts – Vesa Juvonen (Microsoft), Waldek Mastykarz (Rencore), are joined by Albert-Jan Schot  CTO and MVP at Portiva – Utrecht, Netherlands.

 

The group discusses differences in development for on-prem (one framework, add boxes) vs cloud (many frameworks, throttling), for business productivity stack (integrate stuff) vs Azure (expose stuff) and for open-source projects (rinse and repeat).  Unclear?  Watch the episode.

 

Why develop for M365 as opposed to Azure? It’s not that you choose one or the other. Both so intertwined and converging in a cloud first world.   Azure (tools/services) supports so much that we just do AI, Infrastructure, Security, Identity in the process of delivering business solutions. M365 is like an OS providing many services.  Our focus is integrating and building on top of M365 – within feature rich environments – Teams, Outlook, SharePoint where our customers conduct their daily business.
