“Nadella describes Azure's networking team as a concrete ambition model: rather than scaling headcount to manage exponential infrastructure growth, they built an agentic system named Miles to run fiber operations autonomously.”
Azure Foundry

“Microsoft's multimodal harness, available via Azure Foundry, proved this when its security tool found vulnerabilities that dedicated security benchmarks missed.”

Purview
by Microsoft
“Microsoft's Agent365 framework assigns each agent a verified identity via extended Entra, enforces security through extended Defender, and applies data classification labels automatically via extended Purview.”

by Microsoft
“Microsoft's Agent365 framework assigns each agent a verified identity via extended Entra, enforces security through extended Defender, and applies data classification labels automatically via extended Purview.”
GitHub Agentic Development Environment
by Microsoft

Entra
