Publisher's Synopsis
Satya Nadella faces the biggest crisis of his career as Microsoft gets criticized by United States Government for the company's pathetic cybersecurity standards. Find out how the failures in Microsoft are not one or two but a cascading series of flaws which have enabled hackers from enemy nations to access email accounts of high-profile Microsoft customers including the Secretary of Commerce.
All this has happened while Satya Nadella continues tomtoming meaningless products like Copilot for Security and tries to push Microsoft-owned cybersecurity Rubrik for IPO. This revelation is not recent and has been under investigation for a year or more. Microsoft seems to have made no meaningful efforts to remedy its security standards and the email accounts of even its top executives are being accessed by enemy-nation hackers even to this date as we speak.
Naturally, everyone has hesitated to point out to the vain, tone-deaf emperor that he has wearing no clothes till he got mocked in the public much like Nadella is being made fun of today for making a respected name in technology world into an unreliable cybersecurity mess that Microsoft is today.
Microsoft whose Windows Operating System was a security nightmare and gave birth to the billion-dollar antivirus industry, has taken the same carelessness to the cloud as well. Satya Nadella, an intellectually poor dictatorial business leader whose derives his power primarily by playing war-like power games and politics, is exposed as a chink of the old Microsoft culture that was derided for decades and gave birth to the Linux and Free Software movement in the early part of this century.
This massive cybersecurity breach along with unraveling AI hype train may be one of the defining moments of Satya Nadella's Journey as Microsoft Chairman and CEO. This breach at Microsoft shows how the company's employees who famously pride themselves on work life balance and exhibit carelessness in customer experience across their products and are famous for spending time inside office during office hours in enacting skits and dancing to popular musical numbers rather than working with a focus to make customers' lives better are brought into the light. Satya Nadella's false claims of transforming Microsoft, a lie peddled in his book Hit Refresh, stands completely exposed.
