In this week’s episode of ThreatCast Threatscape’s Ru Campbell is joined by Merill Fernando, Principal Product Manager in the customer experience team at Microsoft. Merill discusses his extensive experience with helping enterprise organisations to effectively deploy and utilise Microsoft Entra ID, the importance of realistic, workable security controls, and the open-source culture at Microsoft that’s generating important tools for meeting customers’ evolving needs.
Key Points

  • How can open-source tools remove barriers to security quick wins?
  • Are teams sufficiently aware of potential configuration drift within their digital estate, and what steps can be taken to manage this risk?
  • Why is conditional access central to securing Microsoft 365?
  • What is Maester, and how can it enable administrators to automate their security testing?
  • How has the consumerisation of MFA fed into the developments in authentication we’re seeing in corporate environments?
  • What was the motivation behind Merill creating his weekly newsletter Entra.news?
