It promises to be insightful!
Australian Cyber Security Centre says:
Passwords are passé. It’s time to use passphrases instead.
A passphrase uses four or more random words as your password. For example, ‘crystal onion clay pretzel’ or ‘red house sky train’.
This time next week it all kicks off!

Did you know
Xero customers who use online invoice payments get paid up to twice as fast compared to those who don’t.
Whoa, twice as fast!
What are you going to do about it??
See your options in the xero app store.
Bosses and employees generally exchange labour for cash!
There’s a bit more to it than that. They also exchange lots of secret data.
How do your new employees safely exchange their personal details with your HR team (probably you!)? Please don’t say email, its just not a safe way to transfer TFNs and other identity documents.
Holler if you’d like to chat about ways to reduce the exchange of employee data with strangers.
We’re back at the desk after a week at Xerocon.
We had a great time reconnecting with our favourite app partners, chatting up some new ones, hearing where our industry might be heading, being motivated & uplifted and hanging out with our peers & friendly competitors.
There was a focus on AI, Will Buckley Xero AU country manager said: I’m going to be really clear: AI should not take anyone’s job in this profession. Building trust, having meaningful conversations informed by data, and harnessing the latest technology, is where the real magic happens.
Our office will be closed for the rest of the week so we can all attend Xerocon (coachella for accountants and bookkeepers).
How does this disruption benefit our clients?
We’ll come back refreshed with new ideas, more knowledge (and app options) and a better understanding of the world of small business.
See you next week!
