Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI | Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is now personally responsible for security flaws


Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is now personally responsible for security flaws.

The company has invited the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency to attend a "detailed technical briefing" on SFI and Microsoft's other engineering objectives to explain "the specific ways we are implementing the CSRB’s recommendations," Smith said. Smith suggested that the committee members could "do more in support of cyber defense" by funding critical cybersecurity programs, strengthening countermeasures, and "imposing appropriate punishment" and heavy fines to deter malicious activity. "We accept responsibility for the past and are applying what we’ve learned to help build a more secure future," Smith said, vowing that Microsoft would soon "establish stronger multi-layered defenses to counter the most sophisticated and well-resourced nation-state actors."
