I am sure someone else will find this blog post very useful. I have been doing extensive research since I created this blog post below. So I purchased Beelink EQ12 3x recently. Beelink EQ12 mini PC since it has an Intel 12th Alder Lake-N100 processor (4C/4T, up to 3.4GHz, 25W TDP), delivers 25% more power than N5105. The low power consumption makes this mini-computer great for light work, 4K video playback etc. At this time, this Mini PC costs 329.00, and there is a promotional voucher of 45 euros. So it will be about 284 euros. Other Additions- Got a TP-Link TL-SG108E 8-Port Gigabit Switch (Plug and Play, Gigabit Ports, VLAN, QoS)- A Synology 923+ [I got this due to my Veeam Legend and vExpert status]. Here is a post on how to set up DS923+, and many more to come. The next would be on how to protect DS923+.- Wyebot wireless intelligence (To be reviewed as well)- I'm considering purchasing a NGFW appliance and would appreciate your insight.

When you will download data from Exchange Online – Microsoft will throttle your traffic. In previous years to change it, you should open a support ticket to MS. Now you can temporarily change this directly on Microsoft 365 admin center. This can be especially useful for initial full backup for multiple mailboxes. How to setup this? Go to the Microsoft 365 admin center and in the top right corner open help and just type “ews”. Then you have to run tests as a results you will have option to select duration 30, 60 or 90 days with higher throughput speed.select one of available value and update settings.
THERE IS NOW NATIVE FUNCTIONALITY TO DO THIS EASILYHello, a few years ago I wrote a few articles about this very interesting, and common topic:They were very well received in my opinion, with tons of comments, and lots of views. But since then, many changes have happened, first to the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 APIs, secondly Microsoft disabling SMTP and making our life difficult with OAuth for simple stuff like this.Good news are:The first blog post have been updated with the OAuth steps, so if you are struggling with that, please take a look now :) I wrote two very simple PowerShell Scripts to make your life easy.Automating the painful Microsoft/Google Oauth for VB365 Audit Mail SettingsIf you want to automate this process, because do this manually is the biggest pain I had in this 2023 by far.

Hi! In the recent Veeam Backup & Replication v12.1, Veeam brings many new features and capabilities related to data security and integrations with cybersec tools. One of them is the capability to scan backup files with Yara rules.This is a great feature due to the native flexibility of Yara rules and its wide use in the community.In this demonstration, we will see how to create a simple Yara rule, associate a malicious file with a VM, and obtain uncompromised recovery points through a scan operation. Everything is effortless and intuitive. I hope it is helpful for the community!
Sometimes, it is necessary to go back to the basics. After all, we have many protocols and stacks that drive IT solutions. I was rereading my notes from an SNIA training and came across this post from Erik Smith. A good overview of what's under the hood of the various types of implementations and protocols for data storage. This post is a bit old but reflects the many storage classic protocols and integrations. 😀Reference:https://brasstacksblog.typepad.com/brass-tacks/2016/07/storage-protocol-stacks.html

Hi Folks, As always in the world of $$ money people will stretch meanings and at times outright make false statements. There is no point in going after them time and time again. Instead just make sure to read and understand the guidelines provided by the source. Veeam have created a great white paper on Zero Trust in Data Protection. They have spelled things out to make it easy for everyone to understand. You can read it here: https://www.veeam.com/whitepapers/pragmatic-approach-to-implementing-zero-trust_wp.pdfAt the end of the day the goal is to defeat ransomware. So approaches that don’t follow what Veeam have stated means that you are taking more risk. Be very careful as I have seen advertising using the terminology of Zero Trust but describing something that is doing the exact opposite of Zero Trust. Again people can sell what they like, just don’t label something chewing gum if it is in fact asphalt.
Hi Everyone, So I am being sent on a secret mission and decided to do a video training people how not to look like a Veeam Agent when on secret missions!!
