In a world of digital everything, teams face increasing complexity. Ever-growing dependencies across systems and processes put customer and employee experience, not to mention revenue, at risk. There is simply too much data to sift through and correlate for humans to understand what is important and know when something is going wrong.

Customer-facing teams have their hands full doing whatever they can to address customer issues quickly. At PagerDuty, our goal is to ease the burden of these teams by giving them the tools and access they need to deliver excellent customer experiences. Over the last year, we have deepened our integration with Salesforce Service Cloud, allowing users to work directly within the platform, reducing the need to context switch.

It’s day one of PagerDuty Summit, and we are looking forward to a full day of expert presenters, actionable content, and educational sessions to boost your PagerDuty IQ and show you new ways to improve your team’s operational excellence.

We know our customers rely on PagerDuty as the backbone of critical real-time operations, so we want to make sure each and every enhancement helps streamline incident response. How can we help our customers spend less time firefighting and more time innovating? One of PagerDuty’s values is Champion the Customer – and we take this very seriously. When building and improving features, we aim to keep a pulse on what’s going on with our customers: what’s keeping them up at night?

In 2022, we have a massive amount of data storage services right at our fingertips. From free, local software included on our devices to premium, top-of-the-line cloud storage services that hold up to 15GB of data for free (and a lot more if you pay). Of course, we can't forget the trusty hard drive, the clunky brick you carry around in your bag that acts as a safe haven for your files until you drop it. When it comes to backing up files, safety is often overlooked.

On May 27, 2022, an interesting Microsoft Word doc was uploaded to VirusTotal by an independent security research team called nao_sec. The Word doc contains built-in code that calls an HTML file from a remote source that in-turn executes more (malicious) code and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint misses detection. Two days later, May 29, Kevin Beaumont publishes an article describing the behavior of this Word doc, and deems this a new 0-day vulnerability in Office/Windows products.
