Microsoft’s offer to make Copilot available at no charge to U.S. government workers marks a significant shift in how enterprise AI is being positioned for public-sector users, promising quick adoption benefits while raising immediate questions about procurement, security, and long-term costs...

Two parallel announcements from Meta and Microsoft this week — a patched zero-click vulnerability in WhatsApp and a timetable for mandatory multi-factor authentication across Azure — crystallise a single lesson for enterprise security teams: convenience is no longer an acceptable substitute for...
Microsoft is rolling a significant change to how new Windows 11 PCs are provisioned: eligible devices will now check for and install the latest quality and security updates during the out-of-box experience (OOBE) so users sign in on day one with a patched, compliant system. This shift, delivered...

The Indian government’s cybersecurity arm has issued a high-severity alert advising organisations and individuals to urgently address a batch of patched—but still dangerous—vulnerabilities across multiple Microsoft products, including Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based), Windows Server storage...
Storm-0501’s latest operation — a hybrid assault that began on-premises, pivoted into Azure, exfiltrated and destroyed cloud data, and culminated in a ransom demand delivered through a compromised Microsoft Teams account — marks a stark turning point in how ransomware actors pursue profit and...
Security researchers have observed a coordinated, large‑scale reconnaissance campaign probing Microsoft Remote Desktop services that began as a sudden one‑day spike and escalated into a torrent of scans — a pattern that looks less like opportunistic background noise and more like deliberate...
Broadcom’s broadside from the VMware Explore stage in Las Vegas was blunt: enterprises should stop reflexively running to the public cloud and instead bring AI and modern apps back on-premises with VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF). Background
Broadcom completed its acquisition of VMware in late...
Zero-trust is not an add-on for AI pipelines — it must be baked into the fabric of how data, models and orchestration talk to one another. In a recent InfoWorld piece, the author laid out a metadata-driven, zero-trust MLOps reference architecture on Azure that combines Microsoft Entra ID, Azure...

Microsoft’s push to weave Copilot into the fabric of Microsoft 365 has hit a trust-defining snag: for months, under specific prompting conditions, the AI assistant’s access to source documents could be absent from Microsoft 365 audit logs, leaving security teams with empty entries where...
This week’s Cisco Talos briefing reads like a travelogue-turned-threat-advisory: after a short, evocative opening about cherry pie and Douglas firs, the post pivots sharply to an urgent security alert — a Russian state‑backed cluster Talos calls Static Tundra is actively exploiting a...
IGEL’s message landed at an awkwardly perfect moment: as Broadcom’s reshaping of VMware nudges enterprises toward migration decisions and Microsoft’s timetable for Windows 10 reaches its endpoint, IGEL is pitching a simple — and radical — premise for enterprises that want to shrink the endpoint...
