There is something called “Trail Magic”. It’s a term attributed to the people who provide icy cold drinks or snacks to hikers along the Appalachian Trail as a way to encourage them to finish their journey. 

Maybe you can give a little Trail Magic to your teachers and staff during these last weeks of the school year. As you are considering the pay-it-forward effect and the outcomes of positivity and joy, CDW Education wants to offer you our own Trail Magic to help you close out 2023-2024 operations. Take advantage of our on-demand content, consultancy services, 1:1 strategy sessions, or technical support.

Q: I received a notification from Google regarding changes to how Google Cloud will respond if private Service Account keys are exposed. What does this mean and how can I make sure I get notified if a key is exposed?
