  1. Windows 12: AI-First, Modular, Security‑Focused OS Redefining PCs

    Microsoft’s next major Windows chapter is already shaping up as a defining moment for the PC era: rumors and early leaks point to a profoundly AI-centric, security-first, and modular operating system—commonly referred to as Windows 12—that could reshape how people interact with their computers...
  2. Microsoft's Quantum Safe Program: PQC rollout by 2029, full 2033 migration

    Microsoft’s public push to make its entire ecosystem quantum-safe marks a major step in the industry race to protect data and services from the theoretical—but increasingly plausible—threat posed by large-scale quantum computers. The company’s newly announced Quantum Safe Program (QSP) sets a...
  3. Microsoft's Quantum Safe Program: From PQC Testing to Enterprise Migration 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...
  4. Microsoft's Quantum-Safe Roadmap: PQC Rollout Across Windows and Hardware

    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...
  5. Windows security hinges on hardware: PQC, Rust, NPUs, and a new baseline

    Microsoft’s security roadmap for Windows is increasingly explicit: stronger protections will arrive, but many of them require newer silicon and faster refresh cycles — meaning organizations that want to stay secure will need to buy into both Windows 11 (and beyond) and modern hardware platforms...
  6. Microsoft Level 2 Quantum Milestone Accelerates Cloud Adoption

    Microsoft’s short, strategic line about quantum computing on its fiscal Q4 earnings call landed as more than a slogan — it marked an inflection point that materially reshapes the commercial runway for quantum hardware vendors already integrated with the major cloud platforms, and it places IonQ...
