Our recent SE Lunch & Learn series titled Windows 10: Enabling Your Move to the Cloud featured Microsoft's Steve Deming and Systems Engineering's (SE's) Adrian Wells. This event gave both speakers a chance to mention the new Windows 10 upgrade benefits for Windows Cloud Subscriptions which had previously been announced by Microsoft on January 19 of this year.
Microsoft's Windows 10 made its debut in July 2015, six years after Windows 7. During this time, Microsoft’s new security, convenience, and performance developments culminated into Windows 10. Microsoft’s development continues, with the recent (August 2016) Anniversary Update to Windows 10 which delivers even more features. This is Microsoft’s operating system-as-a-service vision. Windows 10 delivers continual enhancements, cloud enablement, and new security. It is the future platform and begs the question, should my organization upgrade?
We are proud to announce that Systems Engineering (SE) was chosen to receive the 2016 Governor's Award for Business Excellence.

Determining what is relevant and knowing how to read a SOC examination report can help to ensure that organizations get the most value and assurance out of their review.
By now, it’s not a well-kept secret that IT security is an important consideration in the design and operation of an organization’s network. A lot of things can be centrally managed by your IT administrator, like maintaining current anti-virus software, delivering timely operating system security updates, and web content filtering.
