TheRSA security conferenceevent this year will be hosted in San Francisco, and sure enough, Microsoft will be attending the event as usual. In fact, Microsoft’s own Senior Cryptographer Dr. Josh Benaloh is a key speaker this year. Today,ZDNetreported what the tech giant’s topics and announcements will be.

Microsoft’s focus on the Windows Hello security has been paying off well for its users and attendees at the RSA conference will get to learn more about the intricacies behind it. Furthermore, Microsoft will likely discuss its collaboration with Intel to support a hardware-based authentication that the two expect to be available by the end of 2017.

Other topics expected to take the stage will include:

There’s bound to be a topic of interest when it comes to protecting private data, whether from personal use to the broader government’s reach. As it stands, their Government Cloud is the first and only commercial cloud provider to have a Level 5 clearance for the Department of Defense. Rightfully so, Microsoft is keen to remind people that “not all clouds are created equal.”

No doubt we’ll learn more about the next step in security for Microsoft once the event is underway from February 13 to 17. You can still register to attend the event on theofficial site.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
