Have a listen as we go through the PrintNightmare fix that wasn't a fix, Kaseya releasing a patch to remediate on-premises VSA servers, REvil disappearing from the internet, Microsoft 365 Lighthouse, as well as TikTok not only increasing their video time limit but allowing users to submit video resumes for specific brands.

A few events happened last week that we felt it necessary to talk about them here. Take a listen as we go through PrintNightmare and the huge ransomware attack on Kaseya’s VSA remote management service. (We want to iterate that Lighthouse IT does not use VSA, but this is a huge hit to almost 60 manage service providers just like ourselves.)
