On Sept. 10, 2024, Microsoft will host a Windows Endpoint Security Ecosystem Summit at our Redmond, Washington, headquarters. Microsoft, CrowdStrike and key partners who deliver endpoint security technologies will come together for discussions about improving resiliency and protecting mutual customers’ critical infrastructure. Our objective is to discuss concrete steps we will all take to improve security and resiliency for our joint customers.
The CrowdStrike outage in July 2024 presents important lessons for us to apply as an ecosystem. Our discussions will focus on improving security and safe deployment practices, designing systems for resiliency and working together as a thriving community of partners to best serve customers now, and in the future.
In addition to ecosystem partners, Microsoft will invite government representatives to ensure the highest level of transparency to the community’s collaboration to deliver more secure and reliable technology for all. It is expected that the Windows Endpoint Security Ecosystem Summit will lead to next steps in both short- and long-term actions and initiatives to pursue, with improved security and resilience as our collective goal. We will share further updates on these conversations following the event.
