The Grandma test

This post was originally sent by Tom Fridman Tom the boy (this is how we call him in the office) is king of the Grandma test. Do you know this test? It's when you are sitting down for a family dinner and grandma asks you "explain to me again what it is that you do?" If grandma can repeat that and explain it to her friends, you passed the test. Using Tom's simple approach, any granny can use even the most complex platforms and features. Tom will be joining us this week for office hours and will talk about the newly added approval links feature. Register here View files in slack

SecPops Playlist

This post was originally sent by Tom Fridman Hi It's been almost a year since we created the Community SOC playlist and we have been listening to it non-stop. Every time we sit down to work, we put it on and enjoy our community's chosen tunes (it's straight fire btw). But it's been a while, and we think it's about time to change things up. The last playlist was dedicated to hardcore music, so to mix things up we decided that we wanted this one to be all about happy, fun music - Pop! So..... with no further introduction (nearly) we invite you to help us create the SecOps community's pop playlist: SecPops. Send us your must-have pop song here, in private or wherever you feel comfortable and we will add it to our awesome community playlist! View files in slack
