@ChrisLandauUSA Hi Mr. @ChrisLandauUSA if you happen to visit Laredo TX in December you should attend mass in Our Lady Guadalupe Catholic Church. Every December the 12th they have mass with mariachi. It is a uniquely beautiful and soul filling experience! 👍https://t.co/wTEkwZ73Wk

NEW POST

Threat modeling need not be a specialized activity. Gayathri Mohan and Jim Gumbley update his 2020 article explaining how dev teams can do this little and often - and how it can be applied to platform teams.

GitHub Copilot now has a coding agent embedded right where you already collaborate with developers: on GitHub. And yes, you can access it from VS Code too. 🤖

[Amanda Silver @amandaksilver]

Imagine spinning up a squad of teammates— to fix bugs, write docs, and ship small features —so you can stay in flow. From ideation to production, agents work with you to optimize every phase of the SDLC. You’re still at the helm—just with superpowers. ⚡

[Visual Studio Code @code]

Today, we're announcing plans to make VS Code an open source AI editor.

We believe AI development should stay true to VS Code's core principles: open, collaborative, and community-driven. Let's build the future of software development together.

Today, we announced in Microsoft earnings that GitHub Copilot has surpassed 15 million users, growing more than 4x year-over-year. 🚀

This momentum was made possible by the dedication of our employees, VS Code and GitHub teams being committed to rapidly evolving our product with sustained velocity. Year to date, we've posted 85 changelogs for GitHub Copilot, from MCP support to bring your own key or next edit suggestions – and we’re not stopping there.

With agent mode in VS Code, Copilot can now iterate on code, recognize errors, and fix them automatically. This comes in addition to other Copilot agents like Autofix, which helps developers remediate vulnerabilities, and our code review agent, which has already reviewed over 8 million pull requests.

What started as the first AI pair programmer is soon evolving into a SWE agent, embedded right where your code lives – and with it, GitHub itself will become not only the home of your repos, but also for your agents.

PS: Join us at Microsoft Build, May 19-22 in sunny Seattle. It will be a developer wonderland with keynotes with real demos, lots of technical sessions, and most importantly, plenty of opportunities to meet Hubbers (most ever at Build) and Microsofties on the show floor. https://t.co/CgTszHyC8g

[Microsoft Threat Intelligence @MsftSecIntel]

Threat actors have consistently exploited critical vulnerabilities in Exchange Server and SharePoint Server that enable them to gain a persistent foothold inside the target. Such attacks have been observed to lead to remote code execution, lateral movement, and exfiltration of sensitive data.

More recently, attackers have shifted to NTLM relay and credential leakage techniques on Exchange. Attackers exploit NTLM authentication by relaying credentials to a vulnerable server, potentially resulting in target account compromise. Meanwhile, in recent attacks on SharePoint, we observed increasingly stealthy persistence tactics, such as replacing or appending web shell code into existing files and installing remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools for broader access.

With the integration of Windows Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) with SharePoint and Exchange Server, malicious attempts to exploit security vulnerabilities, particularly zero-days, are detected and blocked in real-time, offering a critical defence mechanism while organizations work on installing official patches and updates. AMSI is integrated as a security filter module within the IIS pipeline to inspect incoming HTTP requests before they are processed by the application to ensure that potential threats are identified before they interact with internal processing, mitigating the risk of exploitation.

Big news! We're porting TypeScript to native code resulting in a 10x speed boost!

No more getting coffee while your code compiles.

@shanselman @dev_binary_tree This is what some people apparently did and is pretty easy: https://t.co/mlYPuEpIPw

Amusingly, I somehow got intune remediations to work for a few machines (no idea how or why), but it did: https://t.co/c00pnXZEEF

Absolutely insane the number of people calling this a "Microsoft outage". Yes, I know Windows isn't perfect (I worked on the system responsible for analyzing the crashes, after all), but short of getting rid of kernel drivers, it doesn't seem like much blame is on Windows.
