Few tools are as critical to modern business than Microsoft 365. Unfortunately, the platform’s ubiquity and central role in the workplace also make it a prime target for cyber attackers.

In the face of these threats, Microsoft announced what it’s calling the Secure Future Initiative, or SFI. Today’s guest is Mark Harris, a cybersecurity advisor at Proofpoint and former Gartner analyst, who provides insights into the challenges Microsoft faces in this effort–and what it means for other cybersecurity vendors.

We also discuss:
  • The increasing use of AI in security tools, both by defenders and attackers
  • The growing trend of bad actors using AI, such as in phishing emails and the emergence of deep fakes
  • Cautions against relying on a single vendor and emphasize the need for efficacy and efficiency in cybersecurity practices
