Backup and restore have always been fundamental pillars of IT — yet this principle is often overlooked when it comes to Microsoft Entra ID.

What happens if someone changes a Conditional Access policy and you suddenly need the version from two days ago?
Or more fundamentally: what can actually be backed up in Entra ID at all?

This session explores how deleted objects behave — and how they can (sometimes) be restored, because unfortunately, the process differs across various Entra resources.
We’ll discuss practical backup strategies that don’t rely on commercial tools.

Finally, we’ll look at preventive safeguards that help you avoid losing critical configurations in the first place, including a few that are hidden in plain sight.

The goal: to make you understand what truly matters when protecting your Entra ID environment.
