Plan 9 from Bell Labs is a distributed operating system, originating in the Computing Science Research Center (CSRC) at Bell Labs in the mid-1980s, and building on UNIX concepts first developed there in the late 1960s. The final official release was in early 2015.
Under Plan 9, UNIX's everything is a file metaphor is extended via a pervasive network-centric filesystem, and the cursor-addressed, terminal-based I/O at the heart of UNIX-like operating systems is replaced by a windowing system and graphical user interface without cursor addressing, although rc, the Plan 9 shell, is text-based.

The Server Room Show - Episode 66 - Cyber Security Awareness
Cyber security awareness presentations are frequently done in enterprises , I present a few myself every now and then, to new employees and also as a refresher course later on to keep them alert and as part of it corporations like to do phishing exercises and other kind of live/unannounced forms of testing employee awareness and ability around cyber security threats.
In my opinion this episode is best consumed together with Episode 2 I did on Security 101 as some of the topics mentioned here are overlapping with the ones mentioned and discussed in that Episode for example the rules and safety about passwords and many other things I discussed there.
