Regaining Control Over Unmanaged GenAI Apps: New Microsoft Purview Enhancements in Edge

on
Many organizations are growing increasingly concerned about the widespread use of unsanctioned Generative AI (GenAI) tools. These apps, often accessed through unmanaged browsers, pose significant risks to data security and compliance. To help with this, Microsoft is now updating some features in  Microsoft Purview that will enhance policy enforcement for unmanaged cloud apps accessed via the Edge browser.  What’s Changing?

CUCM 7

I've just been to a tech-update from Cisco, where they talked about CUCM 7. Though the release itself wasn't very impressing, they have implemented a few new features that will be nice to have. Since this is a pre tech-update, I can't write to much about it, but here are a few key features I found interesting:

  • Better Sip implementation and integration

The tech-update also provided us with information on where the presence functionality is going, which new phone models they have in production, other unified communication products and the announcement of EOL products. If you're interested, you should attend Cisco's official tech-update track near you.
