Someone on Twitter has tweeted about how a scammer was using a legit hospital phone number tied to a deep fake AI voice for vishing (phone phishing). Be alert out there.
Scholarships
FinOps Foundation Launches $1 Million Scholarship Fund to Help Pay for Certifications
The FinOps Foundation has launched a scholarship fund for those who cannot afford their exam prices. I think that this is a great idea especially since FinOps (financial operations aka cloud economics) is in high demand. The need for certified professionals in this space will increase.
This endowment will remove the barrier of entry towards getting FinOps certified. There is no listed deadlines so I guess scholarship applications are taken on a rolling basis. Watch this video and then apply.
