Entra 🆔 News #64 → This week in Microsoft Entra
✨ Learn about 🛡️ token theft protection using Entra and the Microsoft Security family of products, 🎯 granular SharePoint application permissions, Microsoft's 🔄 SFI update, and more! 🌐
👋 Hi, Merill and Joshua here with this week’s roundup of the latest news on Microsoft Entra from around the globe 🌍.
We don’t have any public previews or GA news this week, but there’s plenty to learn, read, and watch. Don’t miss the short video on token protection by Alex Weinert, VP for Identity Security at Microsoft. It’s a must watch.
The newsletter is a day early this week because I (Merill) will be traveling tomorrow to Dallas, where I’ll be presenting at The Experts Conference (TEC 2024). I’ll be discussing migrating from Azure AD PowerShell to Microsoft Entra PowerShell, plus hosting a super fun session titled "Become an Entra ID Superhero!" The sessions aren’t being recorded, but I’ll publish them as YouTube videos when I’m back in Melbourne in a couple of weeks.
Many thanks to the awesome team at Quest for inviting and sponsoring me for the event.
Enjoy the newsletter!
