Technical dive into advanced Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions on how to secure your organization's critical infrastructure.

This session will focus on implementing robust security measures using Entra ID, Intune, Microsoft Defender, and other key Microsoft tools. We will explore how to leverage these technologies to minimize attack surfaces, ensure accountability and traceability, maintain regulatory compliance, and enhance monitoring capabilities.

Key principles such as Just-In-Time (JIT) access, Zero Trust architecture, clean source, and Privileged Identity Management (PIM) will be covered to reduce risks and protect your most valuable assets. Additionally, we'll delve into Identity Governance, Privileged Access Workstations (PAW), and other advanced strategies like Conditional Access, Strong Authentication, and Tiering to ensure robust security for Azure, Microsoft 365, and hybrid cloud environments like Hyper-V and Azure Stack HCI which is still based on Active Directory.

With a tiered approach, we will also look into how to separate security levels between Enterprise, Specialized, and Privileged to provide tailored security measures for different asset and identity classes. This segmentation ensures that the strongest security is applied to the highest impact assets and accounts, while maintaining efficiency and manageability.

The goal is to provide a practical approach on how you can use Microsoft technology to control and monitor access and access paths to your infrastructure, effectively securing your "Crown Jewels."
