Yes, in Admin Console you can set this on devices, and pre-fill in the domain. Devices > Chrome > Settings > Device Settings > Sign-in Screen > Never show users and photos and Devices > Chrome > Settings > Device Settings > Auto-complete Domain

I wish I could be surprised by the lack of thinking in this sector which leads to continual monopoly situations... I really wish I could.

They are guidelines, but they're also excellent base minimum expectations. No one is going to be investigating you if you don't meet these standards, but if you're a school or college who doesn't... well, it won't look good on your org and it'll leave you weaker, digitally.

Holy attempted massive over reach!

Basically, the free one is the basic gemini.google.com interface using the Gemini Pro 1.0 model Gemini Advanced includes the integrations across the Workspace suite and uses Gemini Ultra 1.0 None of the EDU tools have their data used for training and modelling.

It is possible. It's absolutely terrible practice, because as you say - sensitive content. There is no easy way to filter that without their being a manual process involved. Insist that they use their "work" provided email address. They're not so important that someone should check their email account for them.

We're currently trialling PDQ Connect which has just added vulnerability patching and reporting in BETA (we're testing it with them) - and very good it is too.

Assume you have SPF, DKIM and DMARC all in place? How about MTA-STS?

Is everyone still using ClassCharts after their data protection debacle earlier this year? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cg6dvk1ekkyo I would've binned them straight off.

There are no tax or NI liabilities if clothing is protective or part of a required uniform. If it has a logo on it, then it is uniform.

To be fair, it was SIMS that made the unannounced change. I'm not sure Inventry are responsible for that, when they're also supporting other systems that could also break because one developer made a major update and didn't inform everyone else... - - - Updated - - - Frying pan and fire situation

This is a very difficult tight rope to walk. I would certain wait at the moment for any DfE/UKSIC/IWF calls/decisions before taking any immediate action on anything - though collating concerning URLs in the meantime may be a worthwhile idea. Blocking some of the harder right organisations will inevitably turn into a peeing contest with people demanding to know if you're blocking organisations like BLM or similar also.

The problem isn't where your servers are stored. The idea that a local server wouldn't be affected by something like this is asinine as that is literally what happened in thousands of businesses around the world. It wouldn't matter where your data was stored. Having a dusty old machine in a cupboard in a primary school classroom isn't going to save anyone from what happens when a bad update is issued. The immediate issue is Crowdstrike's lax policies regarding updates. The big massive wider issue that everyone wants to seemingly actively avoid is having an operating system where Ring 0 operations are allowed to be ran by a third-party piece of software using a hardware driver to do so which can bring the entire OS to it's knees and render it useless. Which of course can't really be fixed, because it will then lead to cybersecurity vendors suing Microsoft on anti-trust reasons because Microsoft have basically managed to create a whole industry around their OS not being secure-by-design.

Is there no way to run the Inventry client locally and then point it to the database? There must be, surely?!

Try it. Disabled a device and watch your license count uptick!

Only if it is a like for like replacement for the purposes of a hardware fault that needs to be replaced. Trust me, I've had many a conversation with Google over this, including querying the issue where disabling a device returns the license to the pool giving you a false reading of exactly how many licenses you have.

It does. The license is tied to the device.

No you're not over reacting, but are you entirely surprised considering the general malaise of care when it comes to security and edtech? Let alone Microsoft's general attitude to it too! (Plain text OCR screenshots for everyone!!)

Do we know if this is definitely the case? If it is, we are probably going to get a bunch of push back about it because its a security issue... but in trade off between security and someone else's priority, it's security.

Yes, the basic version that everyone can access (which will train on your inputs etc) is available to all, but the more advanced models (which won't train on your inputs) are behind the Gemini Add-On.

It logs the WAN address, not the LAN address - that would be the job of your filtering.

Until they want site staff to be able to monitor it from home.
