Microsoft has announced that it will host the Windows Endpoint Security Ecosystem Summit on September 10, 2024, at its headquarters in Redmond, Washington. This event will gather Microsoft, CrowdStrike, and other leading security technology partners to discuss ways to enhance resilience and protect customers’ critical infrastructure.
The summit’s primary goal is to outline specific steps to strengthen the security and resilience of the ecosystem. By collaborating with government representatives, the event aims to ensure transparency and foster a collective approach to safeguarding users.
Why is Microsoft holding this security summit?
The summit will address key topics such as improving secure deployment practices and designing resilient systems. This focus is partly influenced by lessons learned from the recent CrowdStrike incident. The discussions are expected to lead to immediate and long-term actions to bolster security and resilience within the ecosystem.
Government representatives will also be invited, highlighting the importance of collaboration in developing safer and more reliable technologies. Microsoft plans to share updates on the findings after the event and outline the next steps.
This summit is expected to pave the way for future collaborations, reinforcing the commitment of Microsoft and its partners to enhancing Windows security and endpoint resilience.
