Episode notes
Microsoft's shift in the mid-2000s from acquiring security vendors to allowing multiple vendors to compete in their system due to EU competition concerns. Regulatory pressure led Microsoft to maintain an open kernel to enable fair competition, contrasting with Apple's closed kernel approach. Apple created a separate system in 2019 to allow software like CrowdStrike on Mac without deep system access. Microsoft defended itself in a recent outage by quickly clarifying their non-involvement, prompting them to strengthen their security ecosystem despite the issue not originating from their end.
