Practical Defense in Depth with the Microsoft Cybersecurity Stack:
The network perimeter as you once knew it is history, and so the approach to securing our identities, endpoints, and information has to evolve. In this session, we will examine a pragmatic, hands-on approach to implementing defense in-depth (on-prem and in the cloud) with the tools in the Enteprise Mobility + Security suite, and how to chart a course for incremental and continuous improvement in your orgs security posture.
We will also have our co-organiser Orin Thomas present:
Azure File Sync
Azure File Sync provides organizations with a way to migrate away from Distributed File System (DFS) for the replication of file shares between sites and servers. In this session you’ll learn how to use Azure File Sync to synchronize file server data with a cloud endpoint, how to configure tiering so that colder data that is rarely accessed is shifted in the cloud, and how the cloud endpoint gives you a centralized off-site backup for your organisation’s file shares.
