Application management with Microsoft Intune

Tuesday September 17, 2024 08:00 - 09:00 CEST

Acquiring apps, packaging (or repackaging) them, figuring out command lines, deploying, and updating them has always been a fairly time-consuming task in the Windows ecosystem. This session explores how Intune app management and patching capabilities can help your organization in keeping apps updated and secure using automated packaging, guided remediation, and providing alerts for app updates. This makes app management better, faster, and easier.

What's the future of image-based Windows OS deployment?

Tuesday September 17, 2024 09:20 - 10:20 CEST

Luzerner Saal

While you might hear that deploying Windows using images is obsolete ("just use Autopilot), there are a number of scenarios where that's not the case. In this session, we'll explore those scenarios, as well as the tools that are available to perform the process (and some that are going away, e.g. MDT).

All the MDM hardening we Can(not) See

Tuesday September 17, 2024 10:40 - 11:40 CEST

Luzerner Saal

Engage in a comprehensive discussion on how we found out how Microsoft is hardening the MDM enrollment (Windows Enrollment Attestation) and which steps they took to do so.

We will take you on a Deep Dive (Level 1000 session) into the first steps of the Windows Enrollment Attestation process and explain how Microsoft created something magical! We will show you how it works from the inside and outside and why this is one of the biggest security improvements in Intune.

If you want to hear the details and what magic Microsoft implemented, make sure you are going to sign up for this session!

Reimagine your security operations with a unified platform

Tuesday September 17, 2024 12:40 - 13:40 CEST

Luzerner Saal

Modern security teams use various tools like SIEM, XDR, SOAR, UEBA, exposure management, and threat intelligence. However, these tools generate a large number of alerts and security signals, making it difficult for security professionals to manage them efficiently. In this session, Ramya Chitrakar will discuss how a unified security operations platform can break down these silos with a seamless experience, allowing security admins and analysts to work more effectively to level up your company’s defenses and ultimately bring down your MTTR in the case of an attack.

Intune Automation Magic

Tuesday September 17, 2024 14:00 - 15:00 CEST

Luzerner Saal

In this session we will look at how to leverage Azure automation, Graph API, and good old PowerShell to give Intune an extra bit of oomph, and a sprinkle of wow.

Intune as a platform has matured massively over the past 5 years, but for those of us who are coming from a Configuration Manager background, the want, and desire to do more within the product can be frustrating. The beauty of Intune though is the ability to interact with it, through the Graph API, and in fact you do this on a daily basis without even realising it.

In this session, we will dig into how to leverage Graph, and automation functions within Azure, to well beyond the native capabilities, using scripts to automate many different scenarios, with the only limit typically being your imagination. In this session we will look at real world examples of how these automation additions are used.
