Fake email from 1Password?
Hi, Received an email from 1Password today 05 May 25 advising to update my Linux before 16 May 25. Here's the thing. I've used 1Password since version 3, stand-a-lone software. No cloud. I've NEVER received an email from 1Password. So this is unusual. No where can I find guidance for a possible phishing email. So here I am asking for the info to forward this email so I can find out if it is legit. Why isn't there a confirmed process that if emails are sent, all of your customers know the email is a true email from 1Password? Please advise where I am to send an email that might be a scam, fake, fraud etc. Thank youRandom but Memorable 14.7: Malicious Pottery Service Provider with Tarah Wheeler

Building IT review process
Hi all, I'm the new IT jack-of-all-trades person at a small design-build company. Prior to my joining, getting software approval basically meant talking to the owner and explaining the benefit and the cost. If it was reasonable, it got the green light. As we're growing, I'd like to build a more formal process. Where would you start for a small company to make sure we're doing our due diligence?
Phishing email attempt - be careful out there
I just received this phishing email and thought I would share it with the community as a reminder to stay safe and always inspect before you click. I already forwarded the email to 1password (with headers) in addition to reporting it to the abuse email of the campaign service it came from. Not sure how they got ahold of the email though.Share tips, win swag!
