"Clara Fritsch..: „Ein derart komplexes und umfassend zur Überwachung der Beschäftigten geeignetes System wie Microsoft 365 muss natürlich mit einer Betriebsvereinbarung geregelt werden. Das ist im Arbeitsverfassungsgesetz festgeschrieben.“"
It's a bit of a conflicting situation because it happens at the same time of my lab😁, but this session from @Jthake and @barnambora is one you don't want to miss! Get an overview of all the Copilot customization capabilities: plugins, connectors, custom copilots and many more! https://t.co/6pQy0FpBH9#copilot#microsoft365#msbuild
Dear @microsoft#MSExcel developers: has none of you printed a spreadsheet with #MSWindows set to its built-in #accessibility visual theme, high-contrast black? Because the latest version of #Microsoft365 apps for enterprise prints out black pages with light text. And when I switch the visual theme to the built-in high-contrast white, it prints white pages with black text. Same spreadsheet. That shouldn't happen. #usability
Removing Licenses from Entra ID Accounts When a Replacement License Exists
License management is a core competence for Microsoft 365 tenant administrators. This article explains how to use PowerShell to remove licenses from accounts when an equivalent service plan is available from another license. It’s the kind of fix-up operation that tenant administrators need to do on an ongoing basis.
@nextcloud hat in Namen einer Koalition von Dutzenden europäischer Cloud-Anbieter im Novemver 2021 eine Beschwerde gegen #Microsoft beim Kartellamt eingereicht. Angesichts der enorme Marktmacht des Produkts #Microsoft365 ist es ein Skandal, dass Microsoft 365 aktuell nicht unter der #DMA fällt. Dort sind nur zwei Gatekeeper aufgelistet, nämlich #LinkedIn und #Windows.
🎉 Evolution 3.52 is out! It includes dozens of changes, but probably the most highlighted feature of this release is the support for #Microsoft365 via Graph API.
It's already available in the #Flathub beta channel and we're now pushing it through the pipeline to the stable channel.
I am currently the only individual in my organization who has a Microsoft 365 Copilot license.
In other words, I am the pilot for the Copilot pilot program.
So far, I have not seen any set-the-world-on-fire (metaphorically) capabilities for this set-the-world-on-fire (literally) technology. Having Copilot summarize long email threads is pretty good. But its much-touted ability to synthesize data from across the Microsoft tenant is, so far, not impressive.
#EU#DataProtection#Privacy#Microsoft#Microsoft365: "Following its investigation, the EDPS has found that the European Commission (Commission) has infringed several key data protection rules when using Microsoft 365. In its decision, the EDPS imposes corrective measures on the Commission.
The EDPS has found that the Commission has infringed several provisions of Regulation (EU) 2018/1725, the EU’s data protection law for EU institutions, bodies, offices and agencies (EUIs), including those on transfers of personal data outside the EU/European Economic Area (EEA). In particular, the Commission has failed to provide appropriate safeguards to ensure that personal data transferred outside the EU/EEA are afforded an essentially equivalent level of protection as guaranteed in the EU/EEA. Furthermore, in its contract with Microsoft, the Commission did not sufficiently specify what types of personal data are to be collected and for which explicit and specified purposes when using Microsoft 365. The Commission’s infringements as data controller also relate to data processing, including transfers of personal data, carried out on its behalf."
"Długie dochodzenie w sprawie korzystania z platformy Microsoft 365 w Unii Europejskiej wykazało, że Komisja naruszyła obowiązujące w Unii przepisy dotyczące ochrony danych poprzez korzystanie z tego oprogramowania biurowego opartego na chmurze.
Ogłaszając swoją decyzję w dzisiejszym komunikacie prasowym, Europejski Inspektor Ochrony Danych (EIOD) stwierdził, że Komisja naruszyła „kilka kluczowych zasad ochrony danych podczas korzystania z Microsoft 365”.
„Komisja nie określiła w wystarczający sposób, jakie dane osobowe mają być zbierane i w jakich jednoznacznych i określonych celach przy korzystaniu z Microsoft 365” – napisał administrator danych Wojciech Wiewiórowski, dodając: „Naruszenia Komisji jako administratora danych dotyczą także przetwarzanie danych, w tym przekazywanie danych osobowych, dokonywane na jego zlecenie.”"
To avoid disrupting the work of the Commission, the Commission has been given 9 months to fix things up.
To the @EU_Commission press service that manages the Fediverse account: please tell decision-makers that plenty of recommendations for ethical software can be found at
🕵️ Microsoft 365: EU-Kommission darf keine Daten mehr in USA übertragen (netzpolitik.org) netzpolitik.org/2024/microsoft…
"Teams, Word, Outlook – Microsofts Office-Suite ist weitverbreitet. Auch die EU-Kommission nutzt sie und hat dafür heute Probleme bekommen: Die Benutzung verstößt gegen Datenschutzrecht, verkündete der Europäische Datenschutzbeauftragte. Er hat die Kommission zu Änderungen verdonnert.
Die EU-Kommission hat mit der Nutzung von #Microsoft365, der Office-Suite des Tech-Riesens, gegen geltende Datenschutzbestimmungen verstoßen. Das hat heute der Europäische Datenschutzbeauftragte (EDSB) verkündet. Die Kommission muss nun aufhören, mit Microsoft 365 Daten in Länder ohne angemessene #Datenschutzregeln zu übertragen – wie etwa die USA. Der #EDSB hat der Kommission dafür eine Frist bis zum 9. Dezember dieses Jahres gesetzt.
(...)
Reaktion noch ungewiss..."
L'uso di Microsoft365 da parte della Commissione europea viola la legge sulla protezione dei dati per le istituzioni e gli organi dell'UE
A seguito di un'indagine, il #GarantePrivacy europeo per la protezione dati #EDPS ha riscontrato numerose violazioni del #GDPR da parte della Commissione europea nell'utilizzo di #Microsoft365 e ha imposto una serie di misure correttive
Achtung, wer #Microsoft365 einsetzt, muss heute auf die Office-Anwendungen verzichten, oder sich für das kostenpflichtige Upgrade zu Microsoft366 entscheiden.
I really wished the EU or something would step up against the monopoly #Microsoft has on #email with #Office365#Microsoft365. MS and #Google as well seem to decide who can deliver mail to their servers and who can’t (spoiler, anyone other than MS or Google).
You can tick off all the boxes (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, no spam reputation) and still they decide whether they want to deliver your mail or not. At the same time they happily spam your mail servers though.
I recently got thrown into the world of AI and LLMs. My role suddenly flipped from working on Search products for Microsoft Office to being right at the forefront of Microsoft Copilot exploration.
So, here is my Hugging Face profile... because that's a thing. I don't know how I'll use my account yet, but if you want to follow me, there I am.
If my email #spam folder is any indication, compromised and burner #Microsoft365 tenants are very popular. I’m not an #InfoSec wonk but there’s probably a black market trading access to entire tranches of them.
