MS-DEFCON 4: May updates ready to go

ISSUE 21.22.1 • 2024-05-28

By Susan Bradley

The May releases are once again a bit of a mixed bag, relatively quiet for consumers but a little bumpy for businesses.

For three days last week, Microsoft hosted its developer conference, BUILD. It’s an important event for developers, but the headlines are always about things to come.

On the other hand, I keep an eye on the now — what’s already been released — and how those patches, updates, and new features affect our everyday use of Microsoft’s technology. For example, Microsoft announced the Recall feature of its new line of Copilot+ PCs. That last part is important, because Recall requires AI support built into the hardware, and it will be available only with Windows 11.

Anyone can read the full MS-DEFCON Alert (21.22.1, 2024-05-28).
