Entra 🆔 News → This week in Microsoft Entra
Hey folks 👋, it’s time for another awesome edition of Entra News 🎉 with a new GA feature and some insightful posts from the community. You don't want to miss 👇.
This week, we have Attacker-in-the-Middle detection going GA 🚀 in Entra ID Protection. Now is a good time to turn on ✅ risk-based Conditional Access policy if you have Entra ID P2 or Microsoft 365 E5.
We also have a neat tip from Daniel Bradley on 🔄 rotating your BitLocker keys 🔑 if you were affected by the CrowdStrike outage. Especially if the help desk was handing out BitLocker keys to the affected folks who called in ☎️.
Enjoy!
