The Department of Defense's Office of the Chief Information Officer is considering reducing the number of Pentagon employees who have Microsoft 365 E5 licenses, as it works with the Trump administration to rein in federal spending. The DOD currently maintains more than 2 million Microsoft 365 E5 licenses across two separate programs — the Defense Enterprise Office Solution (DEOS) and the Enterprise Software Initiative (DOD ESI). Through the established contracts, Pentagon components can purchase software licenses for commercial Microsoft products, including Office 365 applications and other collaboration tools. But ongoing efforts spearheaded by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) have prompted the Defense Department to review how many of those licenses it actually needs, Katie Arrington, who is performing the duties of Pentagon CIO, told DefenseScoop. Arrington said June 6 in an exclusive interview: “Our Microsoft 365 contract [is a] very big contract here in the Department of Defense. Does every individual in the Department of Defense need an [E5] license? Absolutely not.” With the department's Deputy CIO for the Information Enterprise Bill Dunlap, Arrington has been working alongside her DOGE representative to review individual position descriptions and multi-level securities to determine what level of Microsoft 365 E5 license that person needs, she said. Other criteria being considered include user and mission requirements for office productivity software, as well as collaboration capabilities, a DOD CIO spokesperson told DefenseScoop. Ten congressional Democrats are demanding answers from Palantir about reports that it is aiding the IRS in building a searchable, governmentwide “mega-database” to house Americans' sensitive information. In a letter sent Tuesday to Palantir CEO Alex Karp, the lawmakers argued that the creation of a database of that kind likely violates several federal laws, including the Privacy Act. The Democrats wrote: “The unprecedented possibility of a searchable, ‘mega-database' of tax returns and other data that will potentially be shared with or accessed by other federal agencies is a surveillance nightmare that raises a host of legal concerns, not least that it will make it significantly easier for Donald Trump's Administration to spy on and target his growing list of enemies and other Americans.” The letter, led by Senate Finance Committee ranking member Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., follows New York Times reporting last month that detailed the expansion of Palantir's federal government work under the Trump administration, noting that the data-mining giant has received $113 million since the president's January inauguration plus another $795 million award from the Defense Department. According to the Times, Palantir has spoken to IRS and Social Security Administration representatives about buying its tech. The Democrats' letter said Foundry — a Palantir data analysis and organization product — has been deployed at the departments of Homeland Security and Health and Human Services, as well as the Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institutes of Health.

Create fine-tuned, task-specific models that write like you by teaching models using expert knowledge, tone, and structure - with reference information directly attached to the models themselves using Microsoft 365 Copilot Tuning. Fine-tuning adds new skills to foundational models, simulating experience in the tasks you teach the model to do. This complements Retrieval Augmented Generation, which in real-time uses search to find related information, then add that to your prompts for context. Fine-tuning helps ensure that responses meet your quality expectations for specific repeatable tasks, without needing to be prompting expert. It's great for drafting complex legal agreements, writing technical documentation, authoring medical papers, and more - using detailed, often lengthy precedent files along with what you teach the model. Using Copilot Studio, anyone can create and deploy these fine-tuned models to use with agents without data science or coding expertise. There, you can teach models using data labeling, ground them in your organization's content - while keeping the information in-place and maintaining data security and access policies. The information contained in the task-specific models that you create stay private to your team and organization. Task-specific models and related information are only accessible to the people and departments you specify - and information is not merged into shared large language models or used for model training. Jeremy Chapman, Director on the Microsoft 365 product team, shows how this simple, zero-code approach helps the agents you build write and reason like your experts—delivering high-quality, detailed responses. ► QUICK LINKS: 00:00 - Fine-tune Copilot 01:21 - Tailor Copilot for specialized tasks 05:12 - How it works 05:57 - Create a task-specific model 07:43 - Data labeling 08:59 - Build agents that use your fine-tuned model 11:42 - Wrap up ► Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?

So what does modern work look like today? Richard talks to Karoliina Kettukari about her new role as the Head of Modern Work for a financial services company in Finland, and what modern work has evolved. Karoliina talks about how the pandemic accelerated modern work, such as being able to work anywhere and collaborating with whomever you need to. Post-pandemic, there is a push for more work from the office, but remote work is still essential - and now artificial intelligence is changing the landscape again. The rapid evolution of AI technologies is a challenge for admins, but the productivity benefits are becoming obvious - you need some good governance!LinksMicrosoft 365 Copilot OverviewThe EU Artificial Intelligence ActEuropean Collaboration SummitRecorded March 6, 2025

LevelBlue's latest Threat Trends Report pulls no punches: phishing, malware, and ransomware attacks are not just continuing—they're accelerating. In this episode of ITSPmagazine's Brand Story podcast, hosts Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli are joined by Kenneth Ng, a threat hunter and lead incident responder on LevelBlue's Managed Detection and Response (MDR) team, to unpack the findings and recommendations from the report.Phishing as a Service and the Surge in Email CompromisesOne of the most alarming trends highlighted by Kenneth is the widespread availability of Phishing-as-a-Service (PhaaS) kits, including names like RaccoonO365, Mamba 2FA, and Greatness. These kits allow attackers with little to no technical skill to launch sophisticated campaigns that bypass multi-factor authentication (MFA) by hijacking session tokens. With phishing attacks now leading to full enterprise compromises, often through seemingly innocuous Microsoft 365 access, the threat is more serious than ever.Malware Is Smarter, Simpler—and It's Spreading FastMalware, particularly fake browser updates and credential stealers like Lumma Stealer, is also seeing a rise in usage. Kenneth points out the troubling trend of malware campaigns that rely on basic user interactions—like copying and pasting text—leading to full compromise through PowerShell or command prompt access. Basic group policy configurations (like blocking script execution for non-admin users) are still underutilized defenses.Ransomware: Faster and More Automated Than EverThe speed of ransomware attacks has increased dramatically. Kenneth shares real-world examples where attackers go from initial access to full domain control in under an hour—sometimes in as little as ten minutes—thanks to automation, remote access tools, and credential harvesting. This rapid escalation leaves defenders with very little room to respond unless robust detection and prevention measures are in place ahead of time.Why This Report MattersRather than presenting raw data, LevelBlue focuses on actionable insights. Each major finding comes with recommendations that can be implemented regardless of company size or maturity level. The report is a resource not just for LevelBlue customers, but for any organization looking to strengthen its defenses.Be sure to check out the full conversation and grab the first edition of the Threat Trends Report ahead of LevelBlue's next release this August—and stay tuned for their updated Futures Report launching at RSA Conference on April 28.Learn more about LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/levelblue266f6cNote: This story contains promotional content.
