Master O365 Governance, Enforce Security Policies, and Achieve Regulatory Compliance
Top IT pros understand the value of a well-oiled IT machine that is efficient, safe, abides by compliance regulations, and fully serves the strategic business needs of the organization through proper IT governance.
Now that Office 365 is running the productivity show, IT managers need to insure the Microsoft cloud suite helps meet all these goals – and that means supporting true IT governance, regulatory compliance, and that O365 and its end users comply with the organization’s security policies.
Conversational Microsoft 365 Management
The pandemic forced enterprises to rely more heavily on cloud-based communication and collaboration solutions like Microsoft 365 (M365).
With such large volumes of users, and the increased complexity of ensuring security compliance, application adoption, and optimized license usage, IT and Security teams are turning to CoreView to help maximize their M365 environments.
In this book we'll explore:
- The common challenges of managing M365

The 2021 Tidelift open source maintainer survey
In early 2021, Tidelift fielded its first-ever comprehensive survey of open source maintainers. Nearly 400 maintainers responded with thoughts about how they fund their work, what they enjoy about being a maintainer, what they don’t like so much, along with a host of other interesting insights.
Over the following pages, we’ll share nine of the most interesting findings with you.
Thinking upstream about White House cybersecurity order 14028
A few months ago, the U.S. White House released cybersecurity executive order 14028, an attempt by the United States government to use its purchasing power to create positive changes to the way cybersecurity is addressed around the world.
Recent high profile breaches like the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack or the SolarWinds software supply chain attack have shown that our cybersecurity defenses are woefully inadequate. This executive order forces a higher standard of cybersecurity for any organization selling software to the federal government, which in turn makes it the de facto global standard for all software in the future.
Tidelift CEO and co-founder Donald Fischer shares his perspective on how the cybersecurity executive order impacts software supply chain security. He’ll brief attendees on the key issues addressed by the executive order, including software bill of materials (SBOM), supply chain security, and provenance requirements. He’ll outline the gaps that most organizations will need to close in order to stay in compliance. And he’ll share a proactive approach to addressing open source software supply chain health and security upstream.
If you want to ensure your organization is fully prepared for the coming changes, you won’t want to miss this briefing.
Cooking with Tidelift
When cooking for friends or family, many of us go out of the way to seek the freshest, tastiest ingredients possible. You may have favorite producers at the local farmers market, or brands from the grocery that you've come to know and trust. But when choosing the ingredients that make up our open source applications, we often bring in new libraries without any guarantees that they are safe and well maintained.
We wanted to distill the idea of managing open source down to something so simple, you could explain it to a child, so that’s why we wrote a children’s book about enterprise open source software management. Yes, we just used the phrases “children’s book” and “enterprise open source software” in the same sentence.
We call it Cooking with Tidelift, and it will show you how we can help you create catalogs of known-good, proactively maintained open source components to ensure your apps are as safe and healthy as they can be.
MDM is Dead. It’s Time to Shift to Android DevOps
Alright, so maybe not completely dead, but Mobile Device Management (MDM) - while necessary - cannot (alone) meet the needs of innovative, agile businesses, especially when customer experience and value are on the line.
With MDM, you can’t control the intake of changes to a fleet - risking widespread downtime - or debug your applications in real-time to prevent poor user experience. Enter Android DevOps where quality and speed are at the heart of dedicated device management.
According to Sam Guckenheimer of Microsoft Azure, “For a DevOps team...everything they do is about making a customer’ experience better.” Android DevOps enables businesses to focus on their business - not the platform - so they can deliver the ultimate customer experience.

How Strong is Your MDM Security?
6 Layer MDM Cybersecurity Self-Assessment
MDM security in 2020 must be dynamic. You need the flexibility to deploy and manage single-purpose Android devices according to use cases. MDM should offer features to completely wipe and re-provision devices at any given point during the device lifecycle. Most importantly, MDM security should allow real-time or automated response based on insights into devices, apps, and user behaviors.
According to the 2020 Verizon Mobile Security Index (MSI), 66% of organizations admit a mobile cybersecurity issue has spiraled into a “significant organizational calamity” in the past, Your chances of experiencing a mobile cybersecurity incident in the next two years are 28%.
Your mobile security risks vary depending on device type, industry, and most importantly, use case. Pay attention to this 42-point checklist to determine if your MDM security is at risk.
