Microsoft Announcement: Security Conference Set for September Following Crowdstrike Disaster

Microsoft Announcement: Security Conference Set for September Following Crowdstrike Disaster

The faulty update at Crowdstrike in July this year caused chaos for many companies around the world. Microsoft wants to learn from these events and has therefore scheduled a security conference for this month, which will also be attended by Crowdstrike and other important companies in the industry.

The security conference is intended to analyze the errors and decide on measures to prevent another catastrophe of this magnitude. The goal here is not just to talk; Microsoft wants to define concrete steps to be able to respond better and faster to problems in the future.

Microsoft invites you to the security conference on September 10, 2024

According to information from Microsoft, the event on September 10th will also feature representatives of the current US government, as it is important to the tech company to offer complete transparency in this regard. After all, one of the topics is the protection of critical infrastructure, as this is given high priority and it makes sense to have the government on board. The following aspects are expected to play a role in Microsoft's security conference, particularly with regard to the protection of critical infrastructure:

  • Increasing reliability
  • Optimizing updates
  • Offering safe practices

Further information will be published after the security conference

Part of the transparency is that Microsoft has already promised to share more information after the end of the security conference on September 10, which measures will be taken in the future to prevent errors in updates and which other security measures are possible in order to increase reliability in the long term.

We're keeping an eye on the Microsoft Security Conference on September 10, 2024, and will report on the highlights that the assembled company representatives came to.
