Visio Stencils Pack for Azure and Microsoft Integration (v5.0.0)

First off, I'd like to send a big shout out to Sandro Pereira who's been managing the vision stencils pack. Essentially, I'm re-posting his information here, because I had a really hard time finding the latest Visio pack for Azure, that wasn't a bunch of SVG's. My thought is that if more people re-post, maybe the search engines of the internet will have an easier time propagating the information...

I will say, and maybe it's just because I'm using Visio 2013, each icon has a boarder that needs to be removed when putting it on the page... Likely it's me.

Best of luck on your Visio diagramming....

Using Python for GPG/PGP File Encryption - Part 2

Previously we looked at creating keys, importing public and private keys and the overall setup of gnupg with python. This time around, we're going to take a look at file encryption. Overall the file encryption process is fairly general/easy. But it lacks in the area of scaleablilty, ie to start, you'll only be encrypting one file at a time, which can be done outside of Python with ease. The idea of going over everything in Python, is that you can setup a script to encrypt multiple files in a folder (look for that in Part 3). Assumptions; you have python, and python-gnupg installed, and a public key from someone you want to encrypt and send files to imported to your keystore home (see Part 1 for more information here. Let's get started with Python file encryption. Start off by getting into your python shell, and enter the following: >>> import os >>> import gnupg >>> gpg_home = "/path/to/keyfile/.gnupg" >>> gpg = gnupg....

Getting Samsung Dex Configured to Work with Azure DevOps Repos

Recently, I upgraded my phone to the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+... I'm a big fan of big phones (a perk to being a big guy). I've always been intrigued with the idea of using one device for everything. Well, with the Samsung Dex application that comes built into these next gen phones, it might be possible...? As a guy that spends a lot of time working on ARM Templates and PowerShell scripts for Azure management, I was curious to see if I could get my phone, using Dex, connected to my Azure DevOps environment and start working with repos.... Well, to my surprise, I was able to, and without much pain. So, in this post, I'll run through how I got my Dex environment setup and working with Azure DevOps Repos. Getting Started With Samsung Dex open, go to the Google Play store and install Termux ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux&hl=en_US ) Once that's installed, open it! Next, we need to gift Termux with permissions to a...

Facebook and Two-Factor Auth

So in this post, I'm going to go over a quick setup on how to turn of two-factor auth with Facebook. Facebook does some interesting things once you turn on two-factor auth. If you have the app installed on your device, it will push a login code to that device. You can also set this up with SMS and the DUO Mobile app. We'll go over all three here. For a more high-level document on 2-factor auth, see my post HERE . As I've said before, this is not meant to be an in-depth guide, but more of a how-to for those that wouldn't normally think of turning on additional security settings. With that, let's get started: 1) Fist off, log into your Facebook on a computer and go over to the little down arrow in the upper right corner and select Settings. In the settings area, you'll want to select "Security" on the left. 2) In the Security Settings, you'll need to select the Edit button in the "Login Approvals" section. You'll be presented wi...
