More wondering what Microsoft is thinking with it's naming conventions and accounts here, there, and anywhere. Some showing up in odd places. OneNote, I'm looking at you.
No wonder it's a confusing mess!

one thing that drives me nuts is their use of 'sign off' sign out' log off 'log out'. with W10, you go 'sign off' and then you're asked if you want to 'sign out'
i can remember when MS products were only considered lowly desktop products, then NT came along and they worked like hell to create an image that MS & NT were a highly professional enterprise company that could be trusted. they did get to that point (IMO), but along came W10 and the whole image thing started to revert back to the desktop kiddie image (again IMO).
anyway i'm going to lunch early.

Morning coffee and drafting documentation on how simple it is to use encrypted disks to securely transfer client and company data around.
Including not only installation instructions for OSX, but usage instructions with pictures. because pictures are worth 1000 words*.

Veracrypt because it's FOSS and OS agnostic.

We looked at using solutions like Bitlocker and Apples Filevault but immediately ran into obvious issues of compatibility, among other issues.

I am getting really frustrated with Hyper-V. Yesterday at the end of the day, I realized I couldn't simply copy and paste into a linux VM terminal. I think I am going to have to ssh into it to run commands. Is this normal? So far, everything feels like it's more difficult than it should be.

You shouldn't be using the console for anything but setup. Use the proper remote tools for what you're trying to do.

It's abnormal to use the hypervisor console to control a VM, except for in cases of an issue where you require hypervisor console access.
