Microsoft Threat Experts is a new managed threat hunting service in Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection. It provides proactive hunting, prioritization, and additional context and insights that further empower security operations centers (SOCs) to identify and respond to threats quickly and accurately. Tech support scams are an industry-wide issue where scammers trick you into paying for unnecessary technical support services. You can help protect yourself from scammers by verifying that the contact is a Microsoft Agent or Microsoft Employee and that the phone number is an official Microsoft global customer service number.
The storyline might unfold as follows: You commit to a major investment in the form of a multiyear ERP project that places huge demand on management time and business resources. Other business change initiatives are either put on hold or depend on the ERP project. The project then falls behind schedule, costs increase (scope creep or excessive customization), or the systems integrator or Partner underdelivers.
When an ERP project starts to spiral out of control, it is imperative to quickly understand what is really going wrong and what needs to be done. For example, delaying the rollout to address possible business risks may result in cost overruns and clash with project team and SI incentives. Canceling the project could lead to an immediate financial write-off that impacts shareholders, yet continuing to spend money does not make business sense. Instead, the right course of action is often to remain calm, stay the course, and tightly manage the project. Many ERP projects have successfully powered through difficult times.
