Microsoft Ignite 2019 – Join my sessions!

/ / 0 Comments / Windows 10

2019 was already an incredible year. I was allowed to be on stages this year that I would never have dreamed of. Fantastic!

Definitely an absolute highlight has been RSA 2019, where I was invited to speak with my buddy Josh Harriman about “The Lost Boys: How Linux and Mac Intersect in a Windows-Centric Security World”. An awesome experience to be on stage with an expert like Josh!

Now two more top conferences are casting their shadow – Microsoft Ignite and ExpertsLive Europe.

The feature is intended to prevent malicious content and downloaded files from harming the system.  After surfing, the isolated tab closes and clears all malicious code together with the temporary container. Admins can already create Whitelists from harmless pages that start in conventional Edge windows. Pages not listed then open in an application guard container within Edge.

Windows10 – Configure Windows Settings Menu

/ / 1 Comment / Windows 10

Pirate,

With the Windows 10 Creators Update (1703) we have received a possibility to configure the “Windows Settings”. The Windows settings are the new, unified system control menu that was introduced with Windows 10. This menu is particularly critical because many of the Enterprise’s unsuitable features can be configured through this menu. This created the need to remove or hide specific settings.
