Implementing Modern Management - Consultant notes from the field
Moving into "Modern Management" is an increasingly prevalent request for businesses' IT teams, and often has the same high-level goals: Reducing reliance on on-premises infrastructure, reducing management overhead, and improving user experience and overall security posture. But how well do businesses understand all the relevant pre-requisites and steps in that journey, based off years of consultancy experience?
This session aims to prepare you with common issues faced by businesses when initiating a Modern Management journey, and how to avoid falling into the same traps, based off significant experience as consultants and using real-life examples.
Security Tooling: Fit for purpose in a modern environment?

After identifying some potentially serious flaws in the way in which modern-managed desktops are checked for compliance against security recommendations, frameworks and threat vulnerability, this session aims to bring awareness and spark discussions and debate amongst the security community.
