Hi everyone,    I’m excited to announce the general availability of Microsoft Entra ID multi-tenant organization platform capabilities!    As your organization evolves, you may need to integrate multiple tenants to facilitate collaboration; for example, your organization may have recently acquired a new company, merged with another company, or restructured with newly formed business units. With disparate identity management systems, it can be costly and complex for admins to manage multiple tenants while ensuring users across tenants have access to resources to collaborate ..read more

Industrial Control Systems (ICS) security has been a subject of research for many years, spurred, in part, by recent state-sponsored ICS-targeting malware and supply-chain attacks like the ZPMC cranes spying concerns that threaten critical infrastructure. Given the potential harm to thousands of people if water treatment facilities, power plants and nuclear reactors or other systems are breached, the stakes are high. Unfortunately, forensics for ICS devices is not as advanced as in IT environments like Windows and Linux. This can stall forensics investigation when incidents occur.    ..read more

The main benefit of using Generative AI in Visual Studio is that it enables you to type faster. It's important to keep in mind that Copilot is not a compiler, it's not magical, it is just an assistant. It's still important to test the generated code thoroughly (in fact there isn't even a guarantee that Copilot generated code will even compile!) In our new video, my colleague Gwyn demonstrates how a new feature can be implemented by prompting Copilot in an inline dialog.      The example First Gwyn starts by placing the cursor in an existing method belonging to a web API. The is ..read more
