A question I often get from customers is "what's Microsoft's plan to mitigate the threat of quantum computers breaking cryptography". Here's a look at our Quantum Safe Program, which I help lead, and the timelines we've set for ourselves so our systems are ready: www.microsoft.com/en-us/securi...

Communications of the ACM (CACM) published our article, "The Price of Intelligence", which describes three key risks inherent in LLMs that enterprises must consider when designing and operating AI systems: hallucinations, jail breaks, and indirect prompt injection: cacm.acm.org/practice/the...

We've just launched Secure Future Initiative Patterns and Practices, a new set of repeatable, real-world security solutions based on how we protects our own infrastructure. From identity lateral movement to legacy systems, and CI/CD pipelines, this guidance is built to scale. aka.ms/SFI_Patterns...

Scott and I have a great time in our latest podcast episode vibe coding a web site that analyzes our podcast recordings to show us who talks more...my suspicions were confirmed! www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tST...

We've made major enhancements to Azure virtual machine availability monitoring, including aggregated and individual health views, detailed impact and root cause reporting for disruptions, and trend analysis. Read more in my blog post: azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/p...

We've taken another step forward in Microsoft's adoption of confidential computing for our most critical workload by migrating the Windows licensing service into confidential virtual machines: techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/azureco...

I love the show @scott.hanselman.com and @markrussinovich.bsky.social learn to. Slightly embarrassingly, I thought it was only available on YouTube and not as a podcast. When Mark literally referred to it as "a podcast" I had my revelation. Here's the links: shows.acast.com/scott-and-ma...

What are the latest innovations coming in Azure? @markrussinovich.bsky.social talks on RunAs Radio at runasradio.com/Shows/Show/991 about some of the new hardware in the cloud, and how they helps with extreme optimization for specific workloads!

Latest Scott and Mark To podcast is out, this one on how we manage stress: www.youtube.com/watch?featur...

This makes no sense:

Just keynoted the Confidential Computing Summit! My talk on "Defining a Spectrum of Guarantees" proposes new terms ("On," "In," "Transparent" CC) to better describe data protection and drive us towards transparent confidential computing.

For your weekend viewing, latest episode of the Scott and Mark Learn To podcast series is out. This one is Scott and Mark Learn To Self Promote, where we try to define self-promotion and discuss when it's appropriate and when it's not in a corporate context: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukzb...

Prompt Injection is a top risk for use of LLMs, where untrusted data can cause a system to misbehave or leak data. We're hard at work on deterministic solutions to prevent or bound the risk, and just published a paper on our innovative information flow control approach: arxiv.org/pdf/2505.23643
