It took me a while to make this video, but finally, here I am: Azure Virtual Desktop Single Sign-On to Azure AD. One of the main “criticisms” always directed at AVD is the double authentication, which many consider a hassle. With Single Sign-On, the process becomes smoother, and the required authentications decrease. Could I have just shown you the simple SSO? Clearly NO, so I even included a FIDO2 security key in it!

On March 8, 2023, a joint event was held between the Microsoft Intune Italian Users Group and the Microsoft Security Italian Users Group: the video of the sessions is now available. Together with the legendary Michele Sensalari, we talked about certificate-based authentication on Azure AD. Marco Moioli and Davide Salsi, on the other hand, delved into how to use the MAM (Mobile Application Management) features of Intune to provide security in BYOD scenarios, and Davide also demonstrated the new Microsoft Tunnel for Mobile.

“How can we leverage a public cloud while maintaining a proper security posture?” Today, we ask this question (while sipping a cup of coffee) to Francesco Molfese (MVP), who has a clear understanding of how to maintain the right level of security both in the cloud and on-premises. Here are some additional links for further reading: Francesco’s blog Defender for Cloud Don’t forget to follow us on our social channels as well:

Shrinking the disk size of a VM in Azure to save on storage costs? With a little bit of tinkering and some PowerShell magic, it can be done. Today, I’m stepping a bit outside the usual topics I cover. 😉 A few days ago, I was looking at the consumption of my lab subscription and noticed that the disk costs were eating up a good chunk of my (limited) monthly budget.

📺 New video: Today I’ll tell you about Temporary Access Pass in Azure AD and how it can be useful in specific situations. ☑️ Onboarding a user to register a passwordless authentication method ☑️ Recovery of a lost or unusable passwordless access ☑️ Initialization of a Windows Autopilot device ☑️ Joining a device to Azure AD ☑️ Initial setup of Windows Hello for Business All the details in the video!

How many times have you been asked to record a meeting because “you never know” or because “I want to review it later”? 🙋🏻‍♂️ Well, 99% of the recordings in Microsoft Teams are never viewed within 60 days after the meeting. It’s a waste of space and, potentially, a security issue if the recording contains sensitive information that is consciously or inadvertently shared. Finally, the ability to set an expiration date for recorded videos has been introduced!
