Windows 10 Version 1709 and Hyper-v Issue

Hyper-V virtual machines don’t start after you upgrade to Windows 10 Version 1709
This is a know issue that is caused  by Antivirus programs.
Bellow is the Microsoft Solution and article.

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You have a Windows 10-based computer that has the Hyper-V role installed.
  • You upgrade the computer to Windows 10 Version 1709.
In this scenario, you cannot start virtual machines. Also, you receive the following error message:
Start-VM : ‘VM_NAME’ failed to start. (Virtual machine ID XXXXXX)
‘VM_NAME’ failed to start worker process: %%3228369022 (0xC06D007E). (Virtual machine ID XXXXXXX)
At line:1 char:1
+ Start-VM VM_NAME
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Start-VM], VirtualizationException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : OperationFailed,Microsoft.HyperV.PowerShell.Commands.StartVM

Additionally, you see the following entry in the System log:
The Hyper-V Host Compute Service service terminated unexpectedly.  It has done this 11 time(s).

And you see the following entry in the Application log:

Cause

This issue occurs because Windows 10 Version 1709 enforces a policy that configures Vmcompute.exe not to allow any non-Microsoft DLL files to be loaded.

Resolution

To fix this issue, check whether you have a non-Microsoft DLL file loaded in the Vmcompute.exe process. One possible cause of this issue is your antivirus software.

We are ramping up again for Oct 5,  2017 and a call for speaker will be going out
shortly

The Dark Web – DarkNet —A Threat to Your Business? 

I did a webcast for ISACA on The Dark Web, DarkNet —A Threat to Your Business?  
The original talk was on  Thursday, 20 April 2017, the talk was 1 hour and is good for 1 CPE

The DarkNet is the World Wide Web content that exists on DarkNet, overlay networks which use the public Internet but require specific anonymizing software, configurations or authorization to access. It’s a secretive place where dissidents can hide their digital tracks, a place where whistleblowers can reach out safely to scoop-seeking media outlets and where you can buy PII and sensitive information. Having an integrated understanding of the DarkNet is important.
During this webinar, you will learn:

  • How the DarkNet works
  • What is Tor and how to set it up
  • How to reduce risks, search and explore the DarkNet

You can see the recording at
