Microsoft Bing hits 100 million active users

Microsoft Bing has been around for quite some time, since 2009, it has now hit 100 million daily active users for the first time.

The reason that Bing has suddenly become popular is that Microsoft integrated Open AI’s ChaptGPT into Bing and their Edge browser.

Sincer Microsoft invested in Open AI, a rumored $10 billion, it has been able to use the technology to its advantage with Bing. You can see more details from Microsoft below.

We are pleased to share that after a number of years of steady progress, and with a little bit of a boost from the million+ new Bing preview users, we have crossed 100M Daily Active Users of Bing. This is a surprisingly notable figure, and yet we are fully aware we remain a small, low, single digit share player. That said, it feels good to be at the dance!

Of the millions of active users of the new Bing preview, it’s great to see that roughly one third are new to Bing. We see this appeal of the new Bing as a validation of our view that search is due for a reinvention and of the unique value proposition of combining Search + Answers + Chat + Creation in one experience.

So it looks like the introduction of ChatGPT to Bing has been a great move for Microsoft and it will be interesting to see if it can continue to grow over the coming months.

Google IO takes place 10th May

Google has revealed that this year Google IO developer conference will take place on the 10th of May, the event will be held at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California.

Google released some puzzles before revealing the date of this year’s developer conference, you can see more details on these below.

“This year’s puzzle called for players to work asynchronously and use algorithmic thinking and matrix multiplication to solve a series of seven puzzles ranging in difficulty level,” says Kacey Fahey, who’s helping plan I/O this year. And now that they’ve been solved and we all know when I/O is, we can tell you a little about how they came together.

The riddles included two types of puzzles: color and binary-style. In the color puzzles, players interact with toggles, turning them on and off according to guidance from a clue. Each action may create a reaction, and when all colors are toggled on in the correct order, the puzzle is solved. In the binary-style puzzles, players use controls to shift columns and rows in the matrix in a specific order to reach the target end state, similar to a Rubik’s Cube. Each puzzle a player completed unlocked an animated badge, which could be shared on social media to show their progress.

Zoom attains three new certifications and attestations

Zoom has announced this week that it has acquired three new certifications and attestations in the form of the Cloud Computing Compliance Controls Catalog (C5), Esquema Nacional de Seguridad (ENS) High, Infosec Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) and C5.

“We know organizations are facing a more complex threat landscape and stricter regulatory requirements than ever before. We’re expanding our own security initiatives and efforts as a result — and part of that means attaining certifications and attestations to make sure Zoom is on par with security standards set around the globe.”

Zoom certifications and attestations

Zoom’s C5 attestation demonstrates our commitment to providing security assurance and transparency to our German customers. C5 is a government-backed attestation framework, which was introduced in Germany by the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) — an organization that we previously worked with for our Common Criteria certification. C5 helps companies demonstrate operational security against common cyber attacks within the context of the German government’s “Security Recommendations for Cloud Providers” guidelines.

ENS

We strive to enable seamless and secure communication for organizations around the world, and our newly attained ENS certification helps us do that for Spain’s public sector organizations.

ENS establishes security standards that apply to Spain’s government agencies, public organizations, and service providers on which Spanish public services depend. It is regulated under the Spanish Royal Decree 3/2010 and is a compulsory requirement for central government customers in Spain. It establishes a uniform set of requirements for the sector, promotes continuous security management, and offers a reference for effective security posture in the modern day.

IRAP

IRAP provides a framework for assessing the implementation and effectiveness of an organization’s security controls against the Australian government’s security requirements. When assessed against the IRAP framework, we demonstrated that we provide the necessary controls for customers hoping to achieve effective security based on two sets of guidelines:

The Information Security Manual: Guidelines focused on helping organizations build internal security frameworks based on risk assessment.
The Protective Security Policy Framework (PSPF): A set of core requirements that apply to Australian government agencies that emphasize common security standards.
Our successful IRAP assessment not only validates the relevance of our security controls but also helps customers make risk-informed decisions when using the Zoom platform.
