Eliminate privileged Entra roles in your tenant

Monday September 16, 2024 17:00 - 18:00 CEST

Environments with multiple Global Administrators, Intune Administrators and Security Administrators are a nightmare for every Microsoft Security Consultant.
Therefore it is important to implement least privilege, protect critical access and apply just in time access.

During this session we will in take a deep dive into the world of Intune Scope Tags, Entra Administrative Units, Defender Device groups and how to leverage access to those objects using Privileged Identity Management.

We provide you valuable insights from our experience deploying these solutions with large enterprise customers.

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.

Thursday September 19, 2024 15:20 - 16:20 CEST

Defender for Endpoint is a superb data source for custom detections and the data can even be used to troubleshoot IT operations.
But as most of you are aware, MDE is also notoriously known for dedeplucating data and the dataset collected is defined by Microsoft.

If you want more flexibility Sysmon is an amazing data source for additional information and with the new Azure Monitor agent on Windows client devices the data ingestion into Microsoft Sentinel (Log Analytics) is easier than ever.

At the end of the session you will know how to implement the proposed solution, where you will find configurations to get started and what are the pitfalls in the current version.
