Healthcare organizations are increasingly being targeted in email attacks, research shows, and Microsoft 365 is often the weakest link. More than half (52%) of all healthcare email breaches last year involved the Microsoft 365 business email platform, up from 43% the year before. According to research from Paubox, there were 107 such attacks in the first half of this year.

Microsoft is getting more aggressive about tying its flagship productivity products to the Microsoft cloud. In the most recent release of Windows 11, the OneDrive Backup feature is turned on automatically when you sign in with a Microsoft account; as a result, some of the most common data folders -- Documents, Pictures, and Desktop -- are moved out of their normal location and into OneDrive.

This student-ready laptop is working with a powerful Intel N150 processor with an integrated graphics card. This thing won't be playing Elden Ring: Nightreign with ultra-high settings or anything, but it's perfectly capable of taking care of basic everyday task a student might need. Things like browsing the web, sending emails, drafting up essays, or building slideshows will be easy-peasy. It comes pre-installed with Window 11 Home.

Microsoft is introducing new limits for onmicrosoft.com domains. Organizations can now send a maximum of 100 external emails per day via these standard domains to prevent spam. The new measure limits messages from onmicrosoft.com domains to 100 external recipients within 24 hours. Previously, there were no limits for Microsoft Online Email Routing Address (MOERA) domains. Microsoft is responding to an ongoing issue within Microsoft 365. Spammers are abusing new tenants to send large amounts of unwanted emails before Microsoft can intervene.

The reality of today's threat landscape demands a holistic approach to cyber resilience, which requires organizations to do more than just prevent attacks.

Microsoft Teams continues to gain ground as a business collaboration tool, in part because Microsoft has tied the meeting and messaging app ever more tightly to the rest of its Microsoft 365 productivity suite over the years.

We identified an issue with the initial fix, and we've corrected it. We're continuing to deploy the fix, and we're closely monitoring the deployment to ensure no further issues are encountered.

Despite the confirmed problems with Microsoft Forms, Microsoft's official 365 Service Health Status website continues to display "everything up and running." This discrepancy is expected to be addressed as the situation evolves.

The Microsoft outage that disrupted Teams, Exchange Online, and related services was ultimately caused by an overly aggressive traffic management update that unintentionally rerouted and choked legitimate service traffic.

Microsoft Loop templates enhance team productivity by allowing quick setup of collaborative workspaces and maintaining consistency across various applications.

"We're setting the stage for the next wave of computing, and that stage is this idea that Microsoft 365 Copilot will begin to truly understand you through its memory, its understanding, and that it will start to bring you the right tools that you need."

With the new Microsoft 365 Copilot Wave 2 Spring release, professionals can leverage AI agents for advanced research and data analysis, enhancing productivity and collaboration.

ActiveX controls, long a security risk, will now be entirely disabled by default in Microsoft 365, requiring explicit user action to re-enable.

You can't use Copilot inside Notepad to generate new text; instead, it allows you to rewrite and tweak existing text after you've selected it.
