Password Protection
I think that it is important to be reminded about better password habits.

In cyber space, maintaining secure passwords is important. Here are a few tactics you can implement to protect yourself and company:

  • change your password every few months.
  • turn on two-factor login authentication
  • log off when you step away from your device
  • don't write down or store passwords where they can be easily accessed

In Observance of Good Friday
Happy Easter
Holy Week
The week leading up to Easter is called The Holy Week, or "Passion Week", and includes Palm Sunday (the day Jesus entered Jerusalem and was celebrated), Maundy Thursday (the "Last Supper" where Jesus met with his disciples to observe Passover), and Good Friday (when Jesus would be crucified on the cross). 
Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus from the tomb on the third day after his crucifixion. Easter is the fulfilled prophecy of the Messiah who would be persecuted, die for our sins, and rise on the third day (Isaiah 53). Remembering the resurrection of Jesus is a way to renew daily hope that we have victory over sin. According to the New Testament, Easter is three days after the death of Jesus on the cross.
