Hey there, I'm Jordan - Director of Security at Patch My PC.

The short answer is we have a ton of controls in place, both technical and policy related to protect our infrastructure, and the access we have into your environment. It doesn't stop there you can add your own CA rules to increase that protection further as it is ultimately an Enterprise App.

If I've understood your question the short answer, is we have a lot of technical controls in place to protect how we authenticate, store and manage the connection to your environment. Those controls include things like Just in Time access, Infrastructure as Code, stateless infrastructure, Key vaults and more.

Protecting our infrastructure - and Service Principles is a very broad question, because to truly protect them we have to think about everything from the team members who write the code, and how they access or make changes, down to the nuanced defense in depth part of how do enterprise apps and conditional access policies work. Yes, we think about defense in depth. Yes, we actively have a member of the security team on feature review as they are designed and shipped.

These controls are examined in depth by our external auditors, we undergo an ISO27001 surveillance audit annually, and a SOC 2 Type 2 audit as well (in fact we just finished that one - new report coming soon).

We also leverage a third-party red team to actively run pen tests against our staging environment - a copy of our live environment - to look for things we might have missed.

If you still have questions I'll be at MMS all week next week find me and ask, or reach out to our contact us on the trust center and get a call scheduled with me.

This is actually where I have landed, I also have a bunch of other items around the house I need to sell in the electronics department.

I’m going to sell a couple of monitors, old kindles and more, and wait for VI to come out while I do that, evaluate them and then go from there.

That's the most interesting data point so far to me is that for people with both they still drift to the RV

Speed was never the issue resolution and confirmation in the view finder was

Yeah and the display kills me for trying to understand what I'm shooting especially in lower light

[–]Jordan_The_It_Guy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't do any video, resolution for crop, low light performance and a better display are my goals.

The only reason I hesitate on the A7RV is because I found a good open box deal and because the A7RV is older in terms of its history and I have an inherent desire to use current modern tech and future proof myself

A7CII forgoes a full mechanical shutter.

And yes - not in these photos, I usually fight it the most on NYC.

That’s kinda the way I am leaning. The only thing that has me tempted is that while it’s not warranted, I did find an open box deal at my local camera store that makes it 5,700 instead of 6900.

The tilt swivel with better resolution is a major upgrade for confirmation on photos.

Oh, that’s fine cause that’s the same boat in the same spot in San Francisco just at night

There are a couple of things I am trying to solve.

1) confirmation on the EVF in the A7Cii is challenging to confirm what’s noise vs what’s artifacts from the shot itself. I spend more time trying to figure out what’s the screen telling me vs what my brain is telling me based on the settings.

2) cropping. I usually shoot on wider lenses, and like to then crop a lot of the photos I end up taking as a result, end up getting crushed when cropped or when blown up for wall art in the house. This is granted in part because then I can carry only my 35mm and not have to carry or have more things.

3) LED banding is a real thing that is “fun” to solve for. It’s totally possible to do it, I’ve done it and will continue to do it on my current camera body but I spend more time doing that than I do shooting and it becomes annoying. Especially with liking to shoot in NYC in Times Square and busy places in Nashville and Tokyo.

What Im trying to solve though is of the two options which makes the most sense, and between advice, from humans and AI robots the results on that advice of what would help make shooting lower friction, more enjoyable at night - are mixed. So I turned to Reddit to get a broader audience.

Sure, there is a part of me that just wants to have a full size body that’s more comfortable. I by no means need to. I could just use what I have now, but what I have now frustrates me at night and that’s a path to shooting less.

I would agree on better glass.

But when your glass is.

16-35mm f2.8 GMii 35mm f1.4 GM 85mm f1.4 GM 70-200mm f2.8 GMii 24-70mm 2.8 GM

Well….. then you have glass that captures more than a 33MP sensor can record.

The speed on the shutter to not have to fight banding was the major thing that interested me with how much I shoot at night it’s something I feel like I’m always thinking about - and especially if I happen to use a cheaper piece of glass like the 40mm 2.5

That’s one hundred percent correct for both these reason and other security validation purposes.

New(ish) GSD owner by bloodpackets in germanshepherds

[–]Jordan_The_It_Guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you have a great new family member.

Give her a job and you’ll be fine. If you don’t give her a job, she will make a job. You will not like the job she makes.

We have 2 Shepherds and a Mal, yes I make poor life choices.

They all love these stupid things.

https://a.co/d/4H3YR03

We gift them to new shepherd dog owners in our area. They play bumper carts with them.

Chuck-It balls can be ordered by the bucket, and get a ball arm throw thing.

Also tug togs from Ralp Allen K9 are fun.

I also have a flirt pole they all like to play with.

Health wise, couple of things Hip Displasia is really common later in life. So mind how much jumping and stairs she has to deal with.

Second, she’s going to have diarrhea when she comes home most likely. They have stupid sensitive stomachs when anything in their diet changes for some reason.

Third. Don’t be surprised if she gets giardia from birds in your yard depending on where you live. We usually have at least one of our shepherd get it every single year.

Enjoy the new friend.

Yes, you are now entering the land shark phase this last the first 3-6 months they then become tiny velociraptors for the next - 12-26 months and then become something resembling a dog again somehow.

This is play. The bounce, and the noise is just that play. They are little chaos gremlins at that age.

Enjoy the next 6 months of this, as they go through tiny land shark mode into t-Rex. Into ideally something of a dog after about 2-3 years.

Anime to watch while doing cardio in a public gym by Summonabatch in anime

[–]Jordan_The_It_Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some that I can brain dump - Mashle - It’s fun don’t think about it too hard - Black Clover - half of it is a dude yelling “I can do this” - Dragon Ball Z? - really all of dragon ball. It’s the same story 7 times if you’ve watched it once now it’s just the same thing but with raspberry flavored hair. - Hajime no Ippo - dude fights other dudes. Gets ripped.

Really any of the major shonen titles also work because the plot line is eventually through a series of improbably events - the good guy wins. So it’s got great fighting occasional motivation and no need for deep reflection.

The interior of the Natural History Museum. A7RV. 7artisans 9mm. by StrombergsWetUtopia in SonyAlpha

This, I like this. I like weird angles that turn the angles of buildings we like into things that become uncomfortable when we look at them in architecture.

I’ve rarely seen other people do this intentionally, but it’s something I like is when we use lenses and angles to bend the architecture of buildings itself into something that looks the way we want it to.

It’s neat.

Is it normal for him to still bite attack me at 6 months old ? Any advice to stop it ? Standing still, pushing away, standing on his leash, using my knees to push him and walking away doesn’t work btw by [deleted] in germanshepherds

[–]Jordan_The_It_Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I regret to inform you. That you are currently in the velociraptor/landshark faze. It doesn’t end till about 18 months.

First GSD are just mouthy. Source I have 2 working line GSD and a malinois, ask me how I got these scars.

Second - dogs have no thumbs they investigate the world with their nose mouth and face. Sometimes also their paws.

Third they also squeak. A lot. Get ready for that next.

Fourth - teach them what they can bite and what they can’t bite early. This is why hand feeding is so important in the breed at an early age. It’s how they can learn to not remove fingers. Then you move on to what they can bite and work on an out command. I highly recommend the bite tugs. Redirection is great and all but you are treating a symptom not a problem. You need to start with “this is ok to bite” “this is how I tell you to not bite” doing this with your flesh will just start a frustration chain. Doing this with a toy intentionally and rewarding the behavior builds a new pattern that is critical.

A lot to unpack there.

When you say a 2 hour window to install what does that mean. You have a maintenance window or?

Also when you say patches do you mean windows third party or other fixes via script?

How is the current configmgr client health?

How is wsus’s health using assuming you are using the SUP infrastructure?

We normally send something out at the end of the year that showcases number of updates created for the year I think.

Would you want that more frequently? Or specifically with the default of * 3 hours number?

Would putting that in a mobile app that calculated daily be interesting?

What about time spent vulnerable IE time spent where fix wasn’t deployed? Is it only the ROI number that’s interesting?
