🔒 Read here how RSA Security's solutions complement Microsoft's infrastructure by filling in security gaps, whilst giving users more flexibility and choice!

This new era demands a comprehensive, adaptive, real-time approach to securing access. At Microsoft, we call this approach the trust fabric

"Microsoft-managed Conditional Access policies have been created in all eligible tenants in Report-only mode. These policies are suggestions from Microsoft that organizations can adapt and use for their own environment. Administrators can view and review these policies in the Conditional Access policies blade. To enhance the policies, administrators are encouraged to add customizations such as excluding emergency accounts and service accounts". #microsoft #partner #security #conditionalaccess #zerotrust

AI is the hot thing, Copilot for security is the hot thing from Microsoft but what if you could feed it with real time data and intelligence from your own computers in your own enterprise. Processes running now correlating to an indicator of compromise and isolating an endpoint based on this correlation and communication to known C2 destinations. I call it a game changer.

A massive update out of Entra Identity Protection (EIP) delivering features I've been desperately waiting for. There's too much in the blog to go through in detail and of course features obligatory 🤖 Copilot 🤖 action, I highly recommend you take the time to read through it yourself. The two features I've been waiting for that I personally think are going to make the biggest difference to Entra ID admins and enterprises are: 🏢 On-premises password resets satisfy risk-based conditional access policy! Before this feature became available to all users, those who hadn't enabled Entra ID self-service password reset (SSPR) couldn't remediate conditional access policies that mandated password resets for authentication risk. Always a pain for organisations with workforces resistant to the use of personal devices as SSPR factors. Now, these users can call up the service desk to have their passwords reset on-premises or they can reset via their native device utilities, which in turn will satisfy the risk based policy. You will need Password-Hash-Sync enabled to take advantage of this, but it's 2024, of course you have it enabled! 🤓 Admin feedback can now train ID Protection machine learning! A fundamental feature of EIP is the constant fingerprinting of a user's behaviour and associated telemetry to improve the identification of actual risky behavioural patterns. Prior to the rollout of this feature the only way to remediate false positives while influencing the underlying machine learning model was through user self-remediation. If an administrator went in to the EIP dashboard and identified false positives the model wasn't influenced, much to the frustration of Entra admins around the world. This latest update has changed this, when an admin marks a false positive as risky, safe or dismisses the risk information is sent back to the ML model and future detections are optimised.

It's Time To Go Passwordless -- Here's How: Microsoft has provided the tools for you to ditch the outdated and unsecure log in tech. It's up to you to actually take advantage of it. #RedmondMag #Innovation
