I just found out that Tata Consultancy Services has been awarded "Secure Access Trailblazer" at the Microsoft Security Excellence Awards.  

@GossiTheDog

New year, new TCS, I guess.

@jtig

Well, one wonders who was also competing for that award. Imagine being worse than TCS...

@jtig @GossiTheDog Let's see if JLR agree eh? 🤣🤦🏻‍♂️

@tdp_org @GossiTheDog JLR is owned by Tata Motors, which is owned by...

(which makes this thing even crazier)

My guess is they agree. I'm more interested in the opinions of Coop and M&S.

@GossiTheDog @jtig I suppose burning the trail to the ground so no one can use it could be a form of "trailblazing"?
@jtig @GossiTheDog It should definitely be added to their Wikipedia page… along with its first mentions of M&S, Co-op, JLR…
@jtig @GossiTheDog "Trailblazing" is a synonym for "bridge burning".
@jtig @GossiTheDog The Onion?
