Enterprise technology's juxtaposition, complementarity and application

The ability to see within an enterprise with operations requiring various technologies in information, communication, operational, security and compliance, or two or more of these, finds stakeholders, or the need to adjust techniques and make, some ingenious ways to be more effective in their responsibilities and deliverables or production. Enterprise technology is not an area and language to be used where there are only some specializations involved but which still within the confines of information technology. IT may have been serving utility operations or energy generation for sometime already and yet stakeholders cannot see how to work hand-in-hand to increase their own efficiency, and the output for which customers are very dependent. There are efforts but they remain completely separate and the result is the bigger realizations and concerns about costs rather than creation of value from the start, not just when profits began to come in. If IT is not clearly use in such environmen

Gmail's be careful with this message

You may have looked up at the conversations (https://support.google.com/mail/thread/10086372?hl=en and https://support.google.com/mail/forum/AAAAK7un8RUCBdMOdCbyW4/?hl=en&gpf=%23!topic%2Fgmail%2FCBdMOdCbyW4) from Google support and community websites already. There are no recommendations how to get rid of it yet. Most of the time the error would show when Internet browsers are used to read email messages. Regardless of the creator or developer. There is nothing we can do about it for now, really. This is probably a security mechanism to remind Gmail or GSuite email subscribers to not just open an email from anyone. Especially, those unexpected and unsolicited emails even if they appear to be coming from family members, friends, colleagues, suppliers and business partners. We have observed that the "prompt" usually happens to majority of Microsoft-based Exchange email system being used by the sending party. These are legit accounts, we have verified them, and even turned o

How to save from Microsoft 365 or Teams and learn the basics of the solution from our first license and transaction

 Subscription and license fees for cloud services is not always appealing to small businesses. For big businesses, we are on a spending spree because we simply can, even if a license if not being used purposely and productively. With small businesses, no matter the need for Microsoft 365, we won't even try it. We did try but stopped and never subscribed back again. We consider the cost to be very high not just because of the service or product's license cost only. If accumulated for years compared to simply buying physical media, which is still the best bet. This, however, is going away. For some markets, it is not available anymore. How can a business get Microsoft 365 without breaking the planned budget allocation just for this service? There are options available from Microsoft 365 website. Pick the business, not family, personal or enterprise, which we may want to consider as well. With the cost the only consideration, any of this may not be a good choice. But then some fea

Linux OS and Libre Office as antidote for counterfeit and outdated hardware, and the license-cost-aversed

 Counterfeit software is a katzenjammer no, neither in a production nor for personal use. We just don’t try it. It will suck up all the information we have been working on. Or we get redirected to an update server with full of malware on it. That’s the worse thing that may happen to any end-user who uses counterfeit software. It’s counterfeit if we bought our software, either a Microsoft Windows or Office or other applications, those from Adobe, AutoCAD and a lot more, from the pavement vendor or stall in a mall but it’s a pirated copy. Copies we have in our possession but we really didn’t buy them ourselves are considered counterfeit because they can be detected as another installation from a different computer and it’s a violation to its license, especially for an OEM, a single setup with identification to the first hardware it was on. We are not saying we can have everything in Linux for free. Some applications are still and only available in Windows operating system. We are talking
