Microsoft’s cloud team has quietly re-architected the silicon under Azure to treat nearly every element of a server as a discrete security boundary — and it's shipping that architecture at scale across new servers this year and into 2025. What started as a collection of academic and hyperscaler...

Microsoft’s latest push to “harden Azure from silicon to systems” stitches together a clear thesis: security must be built into every layer of the cloud stack — starting in silicon and extending through firmware, host controllers, attestation, and immutable supply-chain evidence. The company’s...

Microsoft’s presentation at Hot Chips 2025 pulled back the curtain on a quiet but pivotal shift in how Azure defends the cloud: security is moving from centralized, cluster-level appliances into the silicon and server chassis themselves, with the Azure Integrated HSM and companion custom silicon...

Microsoft’s 2033 Quantum‑Safe Deadline: What It Means for Windows, Azure, and Your Enterprise Microsoft has put a concrete stake in the ground for the post‑quantum era: enable early adoption of quantum‑safe capabilities by 2029 and complete the transition of its products and services by 2033...

Microsoft’s public roadmap for a quantum‑safe future is no longer a research manifesto: it’s a multi‑year engineering and procurement plan that maps how SymCrypt, Windows, Azure, Microsoft 365 and silicon will evolve to resist the cryptanalytic power of future quantum computers. The company has...

Microsoft’s public roadmap for a quantum-safe future marks a decisive shift: the company is moving from research experiments to a staged, product-level rollout of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) across its cryptographic libraries, identity systems, and hardware roots of trust — and it’s asking...
