Gartner: only 40% of CIOs guard against AI dulling staff judgment

Gartner projects 30% of organizations will find AI has weakened independent judgment in at least one core role by 2030. In a Gartner survey, 40% of senior IT leaders reported having a strategy to stop AI use from wearing down employee capability. Gartner recommends useful friction—verification steps and assistants that question premises—shifting how managers measure work and how IT teams evaluate AI tools.

Intune's Windows 11 26H2 security baseline won't update existing profiles on its own

Intune's Windows 11 26H2 security baseline won't update existing profiles on its own

Microsoft's Windows 11, version 26H2 security baseline is now available in Intune. Existing baseline profiles don't move to it automatically. Admins have to create a new profile or update an old one, so how fast the new defaults reach devices depends on each organization's review of customized settings.

  • 01The Windows 11 26H2 security baseline reaches a managed fleet only when an admin creates a new profile or moves an existing one onto it, so each organization's change process sets how fast it's adopted.
  • 02Tenants with heavily customized baseline profiles carry most of the work: new defaults and revised guidance have to be checked against settings someone changed on purpose.
  • 03The NetBIOS setting will show up in a later baseline update once it's supported on in-market Windows and in the Settings Catalog. Plan on more than one baseline review this cycle.

Hammond tells MSPs to pick a vertical and one problem

Hammond tells MSPs to pick a vertical and one problem

N-able Head Nerd Stefanie Hammond lays out a 10-step growth playbook for MSPs that have built spare capacity, starting with one industry and one problem and a 100-account target list. She argues MSPs have a sales problem more than a lead problem, and points to her go-to-market accelerator program, with classes starting in November.

  • 01Hammond starts with revenue targets, then one industry and one problem, then a 100-account list split 20, 30 and 50.
  • 02Hammond says MSPs have a sales problem more than a lead problem: find where proposals stall and whether the right decision makers are in the room before paying for more leads.
  • 03The Dream 100 name traces to a case Chet Holmes International describes: 167 of 2,200 newspaper advertisers bought 95% of the ads, and the first close took five months of mail and calls.
