Katie Anderson shared thisHappy first birthday, Windows 365 Link! 🎂Katie Anderson shared thisAdding a new device type to your IT environment typically adds complexity. With Windows 365 Link, customers are telling us it’s doing the opposite…making things simpler, faster, and more secure. One year in, we’re hearing how Windows 365 Link is helping streamline work in shared spaces by giving frontline and desk based workers a simple to manage, secure endpoint for Windows 365. Purpose built for Cloud PCs, it helps IT teams scale simply, securely, and cost effectively…the way it should work. As we mark this milestone, we’re grateful to our Windows 365 customers and partners for their trust and collaboration.

Katie Anderson shared thisThe upside of working on Windows security: “Oh wow, there are so many great places and channels to learn more about these features!” The challenge of working on Windows security: “Oh wow… there are so many places and channels to learn about these features…” Windows is constantly evolving and growing our capabilities across the platform, including (especially!) security. There are a lot of great resources to learn more about the goodness currently available, and what’s coming. For IT and security teams, in particular, here are some of my favorite resources: 🔍 Windows 11 overview page on Microsoft Learn: https://lnkd.in/gB7AgMgX – Learn is a great place to learn more about how to use and configure your Windows environment, especially at the feature level (and helps link ideas and features across other solutions as well) 📖 Windows 11 Security Book: https://lnkd.in/dhshwVkR - This Windows Security Book is updated bi-annually, for IT audiences, by our Windows Security PM and engineering teams. It is one of my favorite places to learn about all the goodness that is in Windows. (It is also over 160 pages when printed… ask me how I know :) ) ⭐ Windows Blog: https://blogs.windows.com/ – Includes the Windows 11, Windows Experience, Windows Developer, Devices, WIP Blog and more. The Windows Experience blog, in particular, is a great place to learn more about the vision of Windows and hear thought leadership from our Windows team. 🪟 Windows IT Pro Blog: https://lnkd.in/gPXd6W7U - This is *the* main blog page where we announce new features for IT audiences. Think: written by technical authors, for technical audiences, especially at the feature-level. 👥 Windows Tech Community: https://lnkd.in/gMKf7WVB - Your one-stop-shop for the Windows community, including Discussion spaces, blogs, events and more. I love seeing how partners, IT pros, security teams, Windows experts and others engage in our discussion boards, help answer questions from the community and connect around what is happening in Windows. At the risk of making too long a list – I will stop at my top 5. But asking others in my network - what are some of the other channels and forums you use to discuss or learn about Windows security?

Katie Anderson shared thisSoftware updates - including OS updates from Windows - can feel disruptive, especially when you get updates at an inconvenient time. BUT staying up-to-date and keeping your system patched is crucial to keeping secure. In talking with IT and security leaders at RSA last week, one of the top Windows security feature updates is *hotpatching*: the ability to do Windows updates without requiring a restart. 🪟 Check out today's blog from Katharine Holdsworth on how this helps keep your organization more secure: https://lnkd.in/g7bbSQCW Ccing Rhonda Jenkins Chris MorrisseyHow hotpatch updates help keep Windows secure by design - Windows IT Pro BlogHow hotpatch updates help keep Windows secure by design - Windows IT Pro Blog

Katie Anderson shared this‘Testing, testing, is this thing on?’ 🎤 Nothing like kicking off RSA with an episode for the Security Insiders podcast with Sarah Young and Dana Huang, talking all about Windows security, resiliency and what’s on the horizon. Thanks for the collaboration Elliot V. - love seeing the work in action!

Katie Anderson shared thisExciting announcement coming out of #Windows365, especially for anyone learning about the power of #Agent365 ... Windows 365 for Agents defines where [Agent] work executes, providing Cloud PCs to enable agents to operate inside their own desktops and applications, including UI‑driven and non‑API systems, within a fully managed and auditable environment. These Cloud PCs can run Windows or Linux (coming soon) and are: 🔑Entra ID-joined 🖥️Microsoft Intune-managed ✔️Policy-enforced 📜Auditable by design Check out the latest blog / postKatie Anderson shared thisAgent 365 provides the enterprise control plane for AI agents—defining their identity, policies, and oversight. #Windows365 for Agents extends that control into full, agent-assigned #CloudPC environments, providing a secure, governed, and observable execution layer when agents need to operate inside real applications. Together, they allow organizations to run AI agents with the same trust, control, and accountability as human users—even for UI‑driven work where APIs don’t exist. https://lnkd.in/gNasBSWNUnlocking Secure Agentic Productivity with Windows 365 for AgentsUnlocking Secure Agentic Productivity with Windows 365 for Agents

Katie Anderson liked thisKatie Anderson liked thisNew role! Same company / same curiosity & energy 🙂 I’m excited to share that I’m stepping into a new role as Senior Product Manager for EMEA in the #WindowsCloud product group. Huge thanks to Fran, Rafael, and María for an amazing chapter — I truly loved the work we did together. I’m very grateful for the trust and support. Leaving a role I enjoyed wasn’t an easy decision, but I strongly believe in proactively stepping out of the comfort zone to keep learning and growing. This new role feels like the right challenge at the right time. Grateful to be joining a team with a strong reputation for depth, collaboration, and real‑world customer impact. Excited for what’s ahead and the people I’ll get to learn from. Let’s bring Windows to the Cloud ☁️ #Microsoft #WindowsCloud #ProductManagement

Katie Anderson liked thisKatie Anderson liked thisI recently resigned from Autodesk, where I led product for Flow Production Tracking (aka ShotGrid or Shotgun). My goal in any role (and life) is to leave things better than I found them. I'm proud of what we have delivered the past couple of years and excited for the work that will be in customers’ hands soon. I’m very grateful for the team and customers who continue to push this work forward! This industry and the people in it will always matter a great deal to me. I am especially appreciative of the relationships and conversations along the way, and I hope to stay in touch with all of you.
