Enhance Your Security with MFA!  

As part of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, Century Solutions Group is emphasizing the importance of using Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to keep your accounts secure.  

Why MFA Matters: MFA adds an extra layer of protection by requiring multiple forms of verification, making it much harder for attackers to gain access to your accounts. Even if your password is compromised, MFA ensures that additional verification steps are needed. 

Tips on Using MFA: 

-Enable MFA on all your accounts: This includes email, social media, banking, and any other accounts that support it. 

-Use a combination of factors: Something you know (password), something you have (smartphone or token), and something you are (fingerprint or facial recognition). 

-Regularly update your MFA settings: Ensure your contact information is up-to-date and review your MFA methods periodically. 

Choosing the Best MFA App: 

-Look for strong encryption: Ensure the app offers robust encryption to protect your data. 

-Check for compatibility: The app should work across all your devices and platforms. 

-Consider additional features: Look for apps that offer features like backup options, biometric authentication, and easy recovery processes.

Ohoho WIP Ask meme reading these WIPs has been a ton of fun!! I'd love to hear more about 8 and 9 🌟👀

^_^

8. Outshine the Sun

This one is the actual backstory-story, about Resh'an and Aephorul meeting and falling in love and studying alchemy together. It's an ambitious concept for me- slow burn, multi-chaptered, plotty, set over the backdrop of a fascist imperial state. Resh'an is an Imperial Alchemist and scholar at the University; Aephorul is a prince from a neighboring vassal state, technically still autonomous but in a politically tenuous situation. (Full disclosure, I only just recently watched Fullmetal Alchemist for the first time, so the actual parallels between this backstory and all of that are largely coincidental.) (Aephorul's kingdom eventually gets the Ishval treatment, though.)

The full scope of the story is beyond my skills to write, honestly, particularly since I keep being indecisive about major plot points. Most of what I've actually written at this point is just four or five variations on Aephorul's disastrous love confession, and Resh'an getting a concussion. (Those two events are related.)

What I may do eventually is try to break this down into more manageable chunks- a smaller story dealing with their first meeting and early friendship, a slightly longer thing dealing with the love confession disaster and their subsequent epistolary romance (which is really the part of the story I'm excited to tell, because I enjoy making everyone- myself, the characters, my readers- suffer). And then maybe a third story dealing with the fallout of the political situation/civil war, and their decision to pursue immortality.

Here's a tiny fragment from early on in the story.

----

He drew a circle in the sand. “The First Sphere: transmutation of the natural world. Chrysopoeia, sublimation of mercury, the forge master's steel. That's the alchemy we perform in the Emperor's service.”

Aephorul crossed his arms. “Hellfire and explosives. Poisons. The killing clouds.”

“Yes. We create those, too.” Aephorul was glaring at him. Resh'an met his glare without flinching. “We serve at the Emperor's command.”

“And if the Imperial armies marched on the frontier, would you still serve? You come running when Justice calls.”

“Your highness- what choice do you think I have? I'm a Scholar, not a warmage. But if the palace calls for me, I have to answer.” He twisted his hands in the sleeves of his robe. “If the Empire goes to war, the Imperial Alchemists will go where we are sent. The only way I'll ever leave Imperial service is on a funeral pyre.”

“It won't be a war,” Aephorul said softly. “That won't be necessary. The harvests will continue to fail. The Empire's grain will save us from starvation and empty the royal coffers, and- do you know the real reason I was sent here?”

“What?” Resh'an took a step back. Aephorul wasn't glaring now, but the look in his eyes was intense.

“There are plenty of wealthy, unmarried women in the capital. I'm of no real use to my family on the frontier- but if I can secure an advantageous marriage, then maybe I'll be worth something.” He crossed his arms. “The seneschal prefers that I keep my mouth shut while he finds me a likely prospect. Probably some widowed heiress who likes the idea of having a pet savage on a pretty leash.”

“Aephorul…” Resh'an touched his shoulder, hesitantly. Aephorul jerked his arm away.

“Keep your pity, Scholar,” he snarled.

“Of course, your highness,” he said acidly. “You seem to have plenty for yourself already.”

Aephorul startled at that, eyes widening in surprise. “So you do have teeth. Here I thought the University must have defanged you.”

Resh'an snorted. "I'll have you know the students at the Academy are terrified of me."

"What, the little ducklings that follow you around the Library with stars in their eyes?" Aephorul cracked a smile at last, and shook his head.

He met Aephorul's smile with a grin. "You've been following me around the Library, your highness." As soon as he said it, Resh'an wished he hadn't; it was one thing to befriend the prince, insofar as an indentured Scholar could befriend foreign royalty.

It was another thing entirely to flirt with him. Resh'an knew better. He cleared his throat, and gestured to the diagrams with his staff. "All those little ducklings pay attention in their classes, at least."

9. Game, Set, Match

I hate this title. I hate it! It has to change. I hated Loser Takes All, but that at least felt thematically appropriate given what happens, amd it's grown on me. Thats not the case here at all. Really, since this one is from Aephorul's pov, the title ought to have something to do with dreams, or longing. Resh'an's pov gets all the gaming metaphors.

Anyway, this is the direct sequel to Save Scumming; It's fairly lighthearted, relatively speaking, and is really just supposed to be some wacky porn. But I guess they do end up yelling at each other and crying about it a bit. Par for the course, really.

It takes place a decade or so after Save Scumming, or at least some interval of time that might feel long to a mortal but isn't unduly long for them. But for perspective- it's maybe 6-9 months from Loser Takes All through the end of Save Scumming. Part of the reason they're both so unhinged about everything is because prior to the events of Sea of Stars, they hadn't seen each other for a thousand years.

I'll be real here: my favorite part of this story is getting to do more weird inhuman/body horror things with Aephorul. Here's a taste:

---

He dug his other tentacles into the loam like a tree putting down roots. The mycelial network beneath the soil reached back- forests had souls, too, and this one was particularly ancient and vast. Older than both of them, by at least a full order of magnitude.

He rarely encountered living things that old, but perhaps that was why Resh'an had chosen this place. Aephorul held no particular reverence for such things, not anymore. He could have sunk his claws into the forest's soul and destroyed it, disrupting the careful balance of microbial life that was the foundation for every living system. He could inject plague into the lifeblood of this world, and watch it devour itself. But he'd made a deal. An entire continental forest system wasn't exactly minimal casualties.

So he acknowledged that vast and ponderous soul, and felt it acknowledge him in turn. He would only extract what he needed from the soil: calcium and phosphate; extra carbon and few other trace minerals. His flesh was all the alchemy equipment he needed here- he could synthesize bone in his sleep.

That was usually when he preferred to do it, honestly. It was always nice to wake up from a nap with a brand new set of knees.

The Role of CCNP in Multi-Cloud Networking

We live in a time where everything is connected—our phones, laptops, TVs, watches, even our refrigerators. But have you ever wondered how all this connection actually works? Behind the scenes, there are large computer networks that make this possible. Now, take it one step further and imagine companies using not just one but many cloud services—like Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Microsoft Azure—all at the same time. This is called multi-cloud networking. And to manage this kind of advanced setup, skilled professionals are needed. That’s where CCNP comes in.

Let’s break this down in a very simple way so that even a school student can understand it.

What Is Multi-Cloud Networking?

Imagine you’re at a school event. You have food coming from one stall, water from another, and sweets from a third. Now, imagine someone needs to manage everything—make sure food is hot, water is cool, and sweets arrive on time. That manager is like a multi-cloud network engineer. Instead of food stalls, though, they're managing cloud services.

So, multi-cloud networking means using different cloud platforms to store data, run apps, or provide services—and making sure all these platforms work together without any confusion or delay.

So, Where Does CCNP Fit In?

CCNP, which stands for Cisco Certified Network Professional, teaches you how to build, manage, and protect networks at a professional level. If CCNA is the beginner level, CCNP is the next big step.

When we say someone has completed CCNP training, it means they’ve learned advanced networking skills—skills that are super important for multi-cloud setups. Whether it’s connecting a company’s private network to cloud services or making sure all their apps work smoothly between AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, a CCNP-certified person can do it.

Why Is CCNP Important for Multi-Cloud?

Here are a few simple reasons why CCNP plays a big role in this new world of multi-cloud networking:

Connecting Different Platforms: Each cloud service is like a different language. CCNP helps you understand how to make them talk to each other.

Security and Safety: In multi-cloud networks, data moves in many directions. CCNP-certified professionals learn how to keep that data safe.

Speed and Performance: If apps run slowly, users get frustrated. CCNP training teaches you how to make networks fast and efficient.

Troubleshooting Problems: When something breaks in a multi-cloud system, it can be tricky to fix. With CCNP skills, you’ll know how to find the issue and solve it quickly.

What You Learn in CCNP That Helps in Multi-Cloud

Let’s look at some topics covered in CCNP certification that directly help with multi-cloud work:

Routing and Switching: This means directing traffic between different networks smoothly, which is needed in a multi-cloud setup.

Network Automation: You learn how to make systems work automatically, which is super helpful when managing multiple clouds.

Security: You’re trained to spot and stop threats, even if they come from different cloud platforms.

Virtual Networking: Since cloud networks are often virtual (not physical wires and cables), CCNP teaches you how to work with them too.

Can I Learn CCNP Online?

Yes, you can! Thanks to digital learning, you can take a CCNP online class from anywhere—even your home. You don’t need to travel or sit in a classroom. Just a good internet connection and the will to learn is enough.

An online class is perfect for students or working professionals who want to upgrade their skills in their free time. It also helps you learn at your own speed. You can pause, repeat, or review topics anytime.

Once you finish your CCNP certification, you’ll find many doors open for you. Especially in companies that use multiple cloud platforms, your skills will be in high demand. You could work in roles like:

Cloud Network Engineer

Network Security Analyst

IT Infrastructure Manager

Data Center Specialist

And the best part? These roles come with good pay and long-term career growth.

Where Can I Learn CCNP?

You can take CCNP training from many places, but it's important to choose a center that gives you hands-on practice and teaches in simple language. One such place is Network Rhinos, which is known for making difficult topics easy to understand. Whether you’re learning online or in-person, the focus should always be on real-world skills, not just theory.

Final Thoughts

The world is moving fast toward cloud-based technology, and multi-cloud setups are becoming the new normal. But with more clouds come more challenges. That’s why companies are looking for smart, trained professionals who can handle the job.

CCNP training prepares you for exactly that. Whether you're just starting your career or want to move to the next level, CCNP gives you the skills to stay relevant and in demand.

With options like a CCNP online class, you don’t even have to leave your house to become an expert. And once you complete your CCNP certification, you're not just learning about networks—you’re becoming someone who can shape the future of cloud technology.
