Cyberattack is one of the fastest growing crimes in the world, we have seen passwords being leaked regularly, local administrator account is like God of machine, it has superpower to do anything for the machine. A lot of IT guys simply use the same password for all local administrator accounts, the attacker easy access to the whole estate if one machine is breached.

If it happened Error 1327.Invalid Drive when you tried to upgrade Veeam Backup & Replication to 11a, don’t panic, this is likely caused by a stale registry entry for the Veeam server.

To add Duo two-factor authentication to your Citrix Gateway with nFactor you’ll configure the Duo Authentication Proxy as a secondary RADIUS authentication server. Primary authentication happens directly between the Citrix Gateway and your Active Directory, LDAP, or other identity store, which enables additional features such as AD password resets.
Before starting, make sure that Duo is compatible with your Citrix Gateway device. Log on to your Citrix Gateway via the web interface and verify that your Citrix Gateway firmware is version 12.1-51.16 or later and your Citrix Receiver or Citrix Workspace clients support 12.1 or later.
Also verify that your Citrix Gateway is licensed for Advanced Authentication Policy. As of Citrix Gateway release 13.0-67.x, the “Standard” license also includes nFactor for Gateway/VPN, while Citrix ADC requires an “Advanced” or “Premium” license to use nFactor.
