𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁 𝗘𝘅𝗮𝗺 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗶𝗽: 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 A quick reminder for anyone booking a Microsoft certification exam. Use your personal email account (Outlook, Hotmail, Live, Gmail, etc.), not your work or school account. Microsoft strongly recommends this to avoid access issues if you ever change jobs or lose access to your organisation’s account. You can still link your work or school account to your personal Microsoft Learn profile afterwards if needed, for things like organisation provided exam discounts or organisational reporting. I’ve shared further details in the blog post below, including a step-by‑step guide on how to link your accounts: 👇 cloudbuild.co.uk/why-you-sho…

Microsoft Defender now prevents threats on endpoints during an attack Predictive shielding in Defender not only responds instantly during an attack but also jumps ahead of attackers, predicting and preventing the next move before it happens with just-in-time hardening controls that block specific attacker techniques to protect critical assets. It acts in two steps: 1. As soon as a compromised asset is contained, Defender predicts the attack paths and tactics the adversary will use next, in many cases narrowing down tens of thousands of possible pathways to just a few with the highest likelihood. 2. Then, it jumps ahead of the attacker and shields those pathways by using just-in-time hardening methods, giving the attacker nowhere to go.
