What you need to know about SMS authentication for Frontline Workers
Let's evaluate Frontline Worker onboarding methods for the mobile user. Did you know you can onboard Frontline Workers by only telling them to sign in with their phone number? Then they get a code on SMS and can sign in to Microsoft Teams Mobile. From there you get access to Teams Channels, chat, Viva Connections, Shifts, Tasks and the ability to join meetings. But the questions are;
- Will it meet your security access requirements?
- Is SMS authentication actually usable?
- What are the alternative authentication methods for Frontline Workers in Microsoft 365?
MVPs Ståle Hansen and Ben Whitmore will answer this in the session. Join this session to learn:
- What you get with SMS authentication in Teams and only the F1 license
- How to structure Teams to create engagement for Frontline Workers
- How to enable it
- Managing SMS in AAD
- Conditional access
- MAM for Frontline Workers to require pin
- What are the benefits with F5 add-on licenses?
Proactive Remediation Deep Dive
With Endpoint Analytics in Intune, we also got the awesome feature Proactive Remediations allowing you to perform compliance item/baseline type jobs across all Windows managed devices. In this session, we will not only look at the power of these features but also the underlying components, how to trace the running of the detection and remediation script, troubleshooting, and more.
Say Hello to Cloud Trust!
If you thought getting SSO to on-prem resources to play nice with Windows Hello for Business was hard - Then think again!
In this session Microsoft MVPs, Michael Mardahl and Ben Withmore will guide you through a new trust model from Microsoft called "Cloud Trust". And tell you how it can jumpstart your journey away from hybrid-joined devices.
Cloud Trust cuts away the need for a complicated Enterprise PKI, and lets Azure AD take over the heavy lifting of converting your Windows Hello for Business sign-in to a Kerberos ticket.
You will learn a lot while we go from light-weight to deep-dive material, all while not loosing anyone on the way - It wont be boring!
