Are you struggling with poor performance in complex #Excel files? If so, take a read about how to understand and control how #microsoftexcel calculates its results: https://t.co/7r68oPQaa5

Given the rush to automate everything, this is worth a watch, from @Nicola_Askham : Do I need Data Governance before Artificial Intelligence? https://t.co/WhqUe7xrFO via @YouTube.

@Microsoft's vision for the #future of... umm.... the #RibbonUI? Or #Microsoft itself? Or the world maybe? At least, I think that's what this is. Kinda hard to tell, among all the #marketing guff.

Dear insurance company,
Please can I have a new TV? Mine has a cat-shaped hole in it...
Thank you,

@HackingHumansCW This is interesting - and fits in with your conversations about "Hacking the hackers" over the past couple of weeks. https://t.co/BDiroN3YYK #CyberSecurity #hacking

Professionally, I'm obligated to add that if you need help with your database requirements, that is what we do... 😃

@Dune_London @Dune_LondonHelp @SmashinSecurity Umm.... I've just tried to unsubscribe from your mailing list. I sense from your unsub form that you're exposing rather more of your database than you intended. If I tick Seg_Vic_Highspenders do I get better deals? #GDPR

@SmashinSecurity @LastPass Do you get to wear one each? Or I sense a prize for the month's best "Pick of the week". Perhaps you could call it "Sock of the month"?

(Incidentally, I meant on a wide scale, rather than one white-hat installing a patch for his great uncle. I meant that - but Twitter wouldn't let me have all those letters. And you think you've got a problem with the letter G!)

@caroletheriault @gcluley Just listening to Ep 131of @SmashinSecurity (don't ask - been a long dark winter). You discuss ways of getting users to update Windows via an Outreach program. Has there ever been a case of a grey-hat using Metasploit etc to install a Windows Update?!

Why am I not surprised at this move by @Google? And why not reassured by their statement that "Nothing will change"? UK Google users could lose EU GDPR data protections

Really interesting discussion about the role of a #CISO, esp. in the event of a breach. Sales person? Educator? Fuse in a lightning rod? @dspark #DefenseInDepth

When Are CISOs Responsible for Breaches? by Defense in Depth

Still, I suppose if any organisation can "learn lessons" as is always claimed, it's be a university.

[TheITService @TheITService]

That's a decent chunk of cash for the hackers. I wonder what assurance the university had that the decryption key would be available after paying? #ransomware

Today's cryptomining printer is tomorrow's NotPetya. The danger of #IoT devices is that they straddle the border between the virtual and physical worlds. #infosec

Surely this counts as a #Windows #Security issue that @Microsoft need to resolve - quite apart from buying the domain as a matter of public good?

"Data compiled from GP surgeries and hospitals – and then sold for huge sums for research – can routinely be linked back to individual patients’ medical records"

Still - as long as we're making money on the deal, right?

@SmashinSecurity Where do you go to find stories which are interesting but unlikely to have been done to death elsewhere?

[TheITService @TheITService]

Gotta love how low tech "#hacks" can fool the vast computing power at @Google https://t.co/eSAkPG6Id3
