The very nature of how businesses or organisations operate means that the sheer volume of sensitive or confidential data that can grow over time presents a genuine challenge from a management and security point of view. Tools and applications like cloud storage, email and other information storage services can do great things; but on occasions [...]
Cybersecurity should be an ongoing concern for any organisation, regardless of its size and complexity. This is chiefly for two essential business reasons: A cybersecurity incident or breach could, depending on its severity, result in significant reputational or financial damage if not adequately safeguarded against or handled correctly. When judging whether to award a contract [...]
If you are heavily involved with the management and deployment of Office 365 Click-to-Run installation packages on a daily basis, the chances are that you have come across all sorts of weird and wonderful error messages throughout your travels. Although I am admittedly a novice in this area, I know there is oft the requirement [...]
Slight change of pace with this week's blog post, which will be a fairly condensed and self-indulgent affair - due to personal circumstances, I have been waylaid somewhat when it comes to producing content for the blog and I have also been unable to make any further progress with my new YouTube video series.

We saw previously on the blog some of the great features that you have at your disposal when using Office 365 Groups in conjunction with Dynamics CRM/Dynamics 365 for Enterprise.
