holy shit balls... This is huge! Like you, tech and law are most interesting to me. I'm a geek too, though not as big as you I suspect. Wish we knew each other in person. I think we'd get along wonderfully!! Thanks for the details, as alway...

Perhaps we should just go back to paper pushing and throw all the servers out the window. (I’m being factious) Thank goodness for cyber security.

Big stuff- and I’m glad they’re solving it. Probably unrelated but I have 360 and I’ve had 3 crashes where 2 MB’s were fried-both after updates. Very vexing.

The 365 is a double whammy between solar winds and the web shell - I sometimes refer to this as cyber Darwinism because hackers learn to shift on the fly and if they know your network then they know where to hide. But I’d bookmark this Microsoft Resource page - it’s largely dependent on if you’re using a standalone CAL v enterprise https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/update-history-microsoft365-apps-by-date

Grateful for the network support company our school works with - I can't imagine anyone interested in theology students/faculty but you never know!!!
