À propos de cet audio

Microsoft BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Microsoft has had a packed week of major headlines and activities with some notable developments that are likely to echo through the tech landscape for years to come. The most urgent story to break centers around their August 2025 security updates which, according to both BleepingComputer and Cybersecurity News, have addressed 107 vulnerabilities including a publicly disclosed zero day and 13 marked as critical. However, this massive security patch introduced severe lag and stuttering problems for users of NDI streaming software on Windows 10 and 11. The company confirmed the issue in a Windows release health update, acknowledging that users were reporting major performance drops and choppy audio video, particularly when using OBS and NDI Tools. The streaming community has been buzzing with frustration on social media, and both Microsoft and the NDI team are actively investigating.

On the uplifting side, the business world is talking about big moves in Microsoft’s enterprise software suite. The official Microsoft Intune blog just revealed that App Control for Business is now fully available with new highly granular targeting capabilities. This makes it easier for organizations to deploy zero trust application control policies, targeting specific groups instead of company-wide blinds, a long anticipated advance by IT professionals. The update also includes automated patching, multi-admin approval, and new features for proactive Apple update management.

Meanwhile, in the ERP and business process world, Microsoft Dynamics 365 continues to steal the spotlight. According to PA Consulting and Microsoft’s own release plan, the platform’s much-hyped AI and Copilot integrations are now live, automating everything from supplier communications to month end financial reconciliations and generative AI powered demand planning. The new wave 2 roadmap details are out, featuring Copilot throughout sales, customer service, and project ops, and a major schedule: early access now, with full rollout in October.

Xbox fans have had their day too. IGN and Xbox Wire covered the highly anticipated second wave of Xbox Game Pass titles for August, including Dragon Age The Veilguard, Persona 4 Golden, Herdling, and a remastered Gears of War: Reloaded, now available day one on Game Pass.

Publicly, Microsoft has maintained high visibility with multiple community events, including virtual Power Platform calls, SharePoint and Copilot app demos, and a drop-in session scheduled at Manhattan University. Industry conferences like Power Platform Conference in October and Ignite in November have been flagged as key opportunities to see their latest in action.

Speculation about an imminent fix for the NDI issues is swirling but remains unconfirmed at time of recording. The consensus is clear though Microsoft is at the center of business security, productivity AI, and gaming news this week, for better or for troublesome worse.
