Are you an MSP and want to ask a question about ‘how to’ with Microsoft Security? QR code for my WhatsApp group.
About me
I am passionate about Australian organisations improving their cyber security posture, where possible I want to help improve by sharing the questions that I am asked along with some answers, there are many cyber security experts who have a vast amount of knowledge to share, if I can help to aggregate some of this then it is achieving my objective to improve the security posture for all businesses.
I am a current member of AISA Australia (Melbourne), and though I am not a cyber security expert I am a Microsoft Cyber security Expert by certification. I am an enthusiast and continue to learn every day from every conversation I have.
