Kerberos is alive and kicking in the cloud

Tuesday September 17, 2024 15:20 - 16:20 CEST

Come to this session, and John Craddock will show you how Kerberos works and how Microsoft has implemented Kerberos in the cloud. This is packed with demos and insights that will allow you to troubleshoot your environments. Don't miss this session!
