If you remember, back in the middle of 2015, we made a video entitled This one’s for the IT Heroes.
We took a light-hearted look at the work that our IT heroes do when dealing with us troublesome users: forgotten passwords, downloaded malware, lost tablets, divulged data, midnight calls to the helpdesk, and much more.
(If you don’t remember the, ahem, characters from that video, have a quick look now. It’s only 2’49” long. And you will laugh, perhaps even at yourself.)
Well, our hapless users from the IT Heroes video are back, and this time, they’ve gone on the record with New Year’s resolutions to do it right in future.
So for sysadmins everywhere, especially those of you who are working over the holiday season, we prooudly present…
NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS FROM YOUR END USERS
(No video? Watch on YouTube.)

Well done! Good production, and funny. Kudos to whoever sewed this video together. Sophos always displays a keen sense of humor. It must be fun working there.
Paul Ducklin
It is! (Fun working here :-)

What a Brilliant Video! Really enjoyed it, and, the article.
Liking the New Year Hat in the image,………..but……..doesn’t compete with your Sophos Blue number!.
Happy New Year to all at Naked Security, and thanks again for a year of helpful articles peppered with just the right touch of humour…………this site has been invaluable for me, also I’ve really embraced your new site layout.

Why is the video now private?
Paul Ducklin
Not sure… I will try to make it public again!

Hi!
I would love to revisit the hilarious video “NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS FROM YOUR END USERS” but it looks to be private. Any chance you can resurrect it? Thanks!
