This week our CTO, Karl, was invited to the Microsoft Executive Briefing in Seattle on behalf of Nucleus. Part of the event included a trip to the Microsoft Cybercrime Centre. 

Of course, no photos were allowed inside but the group got a tour of the centre and learned the Digital Crimes Unit’s top 4 recommended items for defence. We wanted to let you know their top 4 recommendations, in order, before we delve into each of the points in more detail in next week’s blog: 

**1.** **Multifactor Authentication (MFA)** 

**2.** **Patching**

**3. Strategically choosing which data you want to protect **

**4. Protect against Internet of Things (IoT)** 

Karl returns from his trip next week and we are excited to chat with him about everything he learned during his time with Microsoft…including checking out [The World’s Quietest Place.](https://news.microsoft.com/stories/building87/audio-lab.php) 

**Spot Karl in Nucleus red.**

Look for more blog posts outlining how those 4 tips can help protect you and your business, as well as an interview with Karl on our new vlog series, [Insight](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeosWy-EnqDEYX5Koi-RdiQ). 

Stay tuned!
