Security

Security shows up in the news more and more, especially when a breach lands. Bad actors publish stolen data online for money or worse, so you have every reason to be careful. Although I focus heavily on Microsoft's Power Platform, I also want to show you how to make your online life safer. That ranges from tools you can adopt to simple habits you can build. Your data should be your own and should stay safe. The tools available today do a solid job of protecting us, yet people still take unnecessary risks they later regret. Every now and then I share things that inform you, and from there you decide how to proceed. What matters most is that you raise your own online security a little each time.
