From MS-DOS to AI: Microsoft MVP Andy Malone

Episode 12   Published December 3, 2024 9 minute watch

Summary

Recorded live at Microsoft Ignite, Microsoft MVP Andy Malone draws on 30 years in the field, from MS-DOS to the current age of AI, and points to the trends he's tracking at the show: more than 100 Copilots across Microsoft products, the shift of Windows Server 2025 and Exchange Server SE to subscription models, and a rising interest in security as workloads move from on-premises to cloud and hybrid. Attackers still target on-premises and hybrid content, so closing unneeded ports and services is how you keep them out.
