#ASRmageddon – All your shortcuts are belonging to us….

Wow, 3 months since last post already. I blame it on a crazy busy end of the year at work combined with all the different closing-parties for the kids on school, activities and so-on – and everything that needed sorting out for Christmas. Christmas for me was all about mental wellness and spending some much needed quality time with the wife, the kids and family in general.

2023 is here, and boy has it been busy already. And what better way to start the first blog of the new year on a big Friday 13^th crisis – at least if you are using Microsoft ASR(Attack Surface Reduction)-rules.

PROTTECIO – The scenario – Part I

Hi again and thank you for reading.

So, what will this post cover and what could you expect? One of my biggest struggle is to scope things and not get carried away. So initially I wanted the first post to cover both the strategic and technical aspect of setting up and activating your first O365-tenant and Azure subscription. Covering the basics. Touching into topics like a little bit of planning and strategy, anchoring, lobbying, budgeting, licenses, branding, custom domain names, PIM and roles, MFA…aaaand there you go – I’m already building a humongous blogpost that probably would loose you halfway because of the length and complexity, and I haven’t mentioned all the topics yet…

Introduction

Welcome to the first ever blogpost on PROTTECIO!

This blog is a work-in-progress – just like my own skills. I always strive to learn new stuff, to see new connections, to get to know like-minded peers, to improve the workflow for others, to secure something unsecure, and so on.

Hopefully this blog will inspire you to not being afraid to start something new, learn something new, something you don’t know or improve something you do know. And if you fail, even better – failure is key to improvement and learning! It’s not about being the best in what you do, it’s all about being the best you can be at what you do. And to be the best version of you, you need to try, fail, try again, and succeed. And don’t stop there; repeat the process and improve – over and over again!

The tip of the iceberg!
