I recently wrote about why we need to treat models as insider risks, with security controls sitting outside the model itself. Today, we're putting that principle into practice by expanding Project Perception with new capabilities to help continuously assess agent risk, adapt permissions, and contain threats. blogs.microsoft.com/blog/202…

#CybersecurityAwarenessMonth, join @Microsoft Windows Security team this Cybersecurity Awareness Month for some security tips. 🔐   This is a reminder that staying secure starts with the basics including how your device starts up. 
Every time you turn on your device, you expect it to start safely. Secure Boot checks that the software needed to start your device can be trusted, helping stop malicious software from sneaking in before Windows starts.
