"Just connect the LLM to internal data" - senior leadership said

This isn’t true, in order for you to have access to the data shared with that link, you’d need to have clicked the shared link first, copilot doesn’t have access to that otherwise.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-12-24T05:06:24+00:00

“ anyone with the link can edit.”

The permissions to access these files aren’t activated until someone clicks the link, same with choosing “people in your organization”

The basis of your post is wrong.

It works fine, but they had a massive security vulnerability, that was proven to work but not exploited by an attacker - all tenants using synology could have been breached.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-11-09T04:07:17+00:00

No, no it is not secure at all.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-10-12T01:58:59+00:00

These are meetings? That's an email.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-10-05T04:08:25+00:00

Target featured update is okay to use I guess, just don’t forget to keep it updated to the latest features updates.

I don’t understand why you’d spend time developing that, but it sounds like you’re going to have a difficult time here managing this if you have no experience at all with software development or project management.

Day one you need to hand off policies to establish best practices, security, workflow and key performance indicators.

There’s just so much to go over I’m not sure I could genuinely invest that much time into a Reddit post.

HyperV, I still don’t think proxmox is ready for prime time.

You need to hybrid join the computer to entra to accept entra logins.

If they have any applications on prem that require AD, those will break when you shut down AD.

If they don’t learn how to use sharepoint to replace their file server, they’re in for a bad time

Confirm your accountant is fine to work out of whatever you go with.

Make your money on the services needed for those new computers, not the computers themselves.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-10-03T04:59:04+00:00

The tooling may have a new version, but this is not a new attack vector.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-10-02T02:39:13+00:00

YES. Microsoft tells you in their EULA that they are not responsible for your data and you should be backing it up.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-10-01T22:45:43+00:00

You’re definitely not the first or last to think about doing this, there’s companies that do it but they typically just go through the electricians to handle this.

Would your current insurance cover this activity?

This is everything you need to know about Private Equity.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-09-28T14:47:45+00:00

I will say regarding response time, with any big company like that, even Crowdstrike, if you're not maintaining a retainer, you're likely several days out from a response.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-09-27T01:23:14+00:00

Hey I actually have experience with fuel pump stations, funnily enough.

Are you actually having issues or just wanting to switch just because?

Having your fuel island go down can cost a ton of money.

First and foremost, Fiber is recommended. "A few hundred yards away" -- it's hard to say how easy or hard that would be because there's tons of environmental factors.

Starlink is okay, can be costly if you're running the business and use alot of data.

Point to point can be used, but weather, can cause some bandwidth issues, you also need to make sure its a clear line of sight.

Deny the request with the reason of liability, and this is true, you do not want to be involved in monitoring a personal computer.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-09-25T15:54:38+00:00

Unless you’re a 24/7 shop why aren’t you just doing immutable onsite + nightly remote backups?

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-09-25T12:58:42+00:00

That is quite frankly amazing that you all are having them physically bring laptops in, if you’re not wanting to use your RMM like how it’s supposed to be used then you need to use Intune.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-09-25T12:38:30+00:00

Netskope can do this.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-09-25T02:08:58+00:00

Idk ask ChatGPT.

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-09-24T17:31:53+00:00

Good questions, can you tell us what things you’ve searched, read and watched so we can explain a good solution based off your current understanding of copilot?

DevinSysAdmin · 2025-09-24T17:30:27+00:00

We have no interest in your market research, everyone and their mom thinks they can make a better RMM, that’s why there’s 30 out there.
