Boris Kogan reposted thisBoris Kogan reposted thisTonight, Jewish communities around the world gather at their Seder tables to retell the age-old story of Passover, an always relevant story of liberation, resilience and the enduring pursuit of freedom. Each year, we are reminded that this is not only our history, it's our responsibility. The story of Exodus may be rooted in the distant past, but it continues to shape who we are and how we respond to the world around us. This year, that reminder feels especially urgent. We are witnessing a disturbing rise in antisemitism, here at home and around the world. From violence against synagogues, to hatred on our streets and online, to acts of terror, Jewish communities are once again being confronted with a reality we know all too well. As Simon Wiesenthal taught us, “Freedom is not a gift from heaven. One must fight for it every day.” Passover reminds us that freedom is never guaranteed. It must be protected and defended, in every generation. And still, we gather. We tell our story. We show up with pride, with strength, with resilience and an unbreakable sense of who we are. We are still here. And we're not going anywhere. On behalf of the entire team at Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center, I wish everyone celebrating Passover a peaceful, meaningful and festive holiday. Chag Pesach Sameach.

Two days of breakout sessions. A technology expo floor worth exploring. Supplier speed-dating where you actually meet the people behind the products. The 2026 Empower Summit is coming to Portland, September 23-24, and it is built for technology leaders who want more than another conference. No fluff. No 90-minute vendor pitches dressed up as keynotes. Just real conversations, real solutions, and a room full of people who are serious about getting better at this. If you lead IT, security, operations, or customer experience and you want to walk away with clarity on where your tech stack should go next, this is worth your two days.

Earlier this week, I had the opportunity to present to a group of IT and Operations leaders in the Healthcare Certification space on laying the foundation for effective Copilot usage across the enterprise. The response was energizing, especially around the importance of clear SharePoint ownership, storage management, archival practices, and structured documentation. These may seem like operational details, but they are absolutely critical to ensuring AI tools like Copilot provide meaningful, secure, and reliable assistance. We have seen firsthand that without proper governance, permissions, and cleanup, even the most powerful AI will not deliver value. But with the right foundation, including policies, training, and executive sponsorship, organizations can unlock Copilot’s full potential. I appreciated the thoughtful discussion and the shared experiences from others on the same journey. #Copilot #AIAdoption #SharePointGovernance #HealthcareIT #DigitalTransformation #Microsoft365

For those of us familiar with CMMC, we know that AES-256 encryption matters only when you own your own keys following the FIPS 140-3 framework. Cloud (FedRAMP) or no cloud, encryption key ownership directly impacts CMMC compliance posture. When you own the keys, only you can access them. This fully provides unambiguous control versus customer managed keys where the cloud provider retains access as in the case outlined in this Forbes article.
