🎉 Face Check goes GA, 🎓 new Entra Suite training, special passkeys 🔑 podcast episode and more!
👋 Hi, Merill and Joshua here with this week’s roundup of the latest news on Microsoft Entra from around the globe 🌍.
The Entra product group has released a bunch of Entra Suite-related videos. Bookmark these and watch them—they're highly recommended.
The ‘Implementing Passkeys’ episode with Tarek Dawoud on RunAsRadio is well worth listening to if you are planning to deploy passkeys or want to learn about them in general.
This week, we are also introducing a new section that highlights the top posts from the previous week. Congratulations 👏 to all the authors who made it to the list.
Enjoy!
