Summary: Microsoft Recall has relaunched nearly a year after its problematic initial release, now with improved security features but still retaining significant vulnerabilities. Users must be cautious, especially those handling sensitive information, as biometric security is insufficient and existing filters may not reliably protect sensitive data. The feature is available for Copilot+ PCs through a controlled rollout, with recommendations against its use for certain high-risk groups.
Affected: Microsoft and its Copilot+ PCs
Keypoints :
