0x19 Wellington Meetup: Non-human identities in EntraID
Details
We’re excited to bring another interactive Hack the Box (HTB) meetup to Wellington! Our speaker is a wellington local, expert, and recurring speaker that likes to "Yell at Clouds", Blaise St-Laurent. He will be presenting a talk on the Non-human identities in EntraID and how you've got less humans than service principals in your tenant. This talk goes over what they are and why their security is probably worse than your users.
