New Categories for my Blog

April 5, 2016 Roger Lacroix

I have created a bunch […]

Apple vs FBI Encryption Court Case

The customer has several applications that, shall we say, are poorly written and they will not likely be changed. These particular customer applications connect, open, put (and/or get), close and disconnect from the queue manager […]
