People conflate security with risk mitigation. It’s not secure in the way that you can confirm the data has been deleted. The risk however is mitigated due to vendor attestations reinforced by contracts.

Wait for real? I thought that was a joke about how badly it was designed?

Ohh that’s super exciting. I haven’t realized Microsoft made one.

Okta’s offering was garbage last I attempted to poke it. And 3rd party IAM tooling can be completely hit or miss (and let’s not even start about LDAP over the web…)

There is one last major bit once you have RMM and EDR in place - centralized identify. Until Okta, Ping, Azure, and Google all have a pam module that allows for remote identity management without depending on LDAP, enterprise endpoints are restricted to desktop/server machines (or orgs where you can get a waiver and only have local login).

If you install Ubuntu already your fine.

Personally I don’t want to spend time working on my computer (that’s work me), so I use mint. Just about any flavor of Linux can have a basic development env configuration done.

Casks are as a rule GUI applications. So if you want to install Firefox with homebrew would need to install it via a cask.

It’s not going away. But I could see someone smart figuring out isolation.

Frankly it all three are logical next steps. With the way windows is going, valve needs to decouple it’s store from the windows dependency. The deck was the tester, now we get the not so cheep next generation
