We're going to be talking about worker mobility and remote office technology solutions. And the best part is that we didn't even plan. It wasn't planned like this. No, like that's one of the C3 that's one of their core focuses and uh, I thought what a great time to, I'll talk about it. So we're gonna uh, you hear that sound that those are the VPN engines humming across the U S a as long as they're not running through the West coast Azure platform. Right.
