    A few months ago, we introduced codename MDASH, our new multi-model agentic scanning system, now in expanded private preview. Built to discover, validate, and prove software vulnerabilities at AI speed, the system is helping us explore new benchmarks and insights as we apply it
    Diagram titled “Codename MDASH Execution Lifecycle” showing a five-stage workflow: Prepare (recon, building a pre‑repo knowledge base), Scan (discovering and scanning the codebase), Validate (bug triage and filtering false positives), Dedupe (collapsing duplicate bugs), and Prove (reproducing the bug). Supporting elements include Git/CI inputs, threat model and call graph context, multiple specialized agents per bug type with selection of 3–5 subagents, model comparisons and debates, and patch steps on the right (patch generation, autofix suggestions, and patch validation for correctness).

    We don’t just say it works—we show it, quarter over quarter. New email security benchmarking data is out now—built on real-world telemetry, not synthetic tests. The TL;DR: ➡️ Microsoft Defender consistently misses fewer high-severity cyberthreats than any SEG vendor evaluated
    Bar chart comparing high severity email threats missed by Secure Email Gateway (SEG) vendors from February to April 2026. Text reads: “High severity email threats missed* by Secure Email Gateway (SEG) vendors, February – April 2026.” Microsoft Defender shows 194 missed threats, while other vendors display higher values: Mimecast 478, ProofPoint 483, HornetSecurity 813, TrendMicro 1,151, IronPort 1,274, Barracuda 1,585, and FireEye 2,107. A note explains that SEG vendor misses are threats detected after passing through the gateway.

    500M+ monthly players across Xbox consoles, PC, handheld, and cloud gaming. 🎮 That’s a lot to protect, but gaming goes far beyond accounts and devices. Gaming culture runs deep, spanning players, developers, platforms, and the teams behind it all—and each brings its own
