Microsoft just dropped an emergency security hotpatch (KB5084597) for Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2. 🚨

It fixes a critical RCE flaw in the RRAS management tool that could let attackers execute code over a network.

Check Windows Update now. 💻

I noticed that @brucon talks are published in Youtube, including my "Epic" talk on Entra ID Token Theft Protections!

Besides the technical part, by watching the talk you'll learn:
✅ How to survive live-only-demo-talk when network isn't working 🥵
✅ How to reveal your demo user password to the audience 🤦‍♂️
✅ How to deal with very tricky questions from the audience 🥶

🎙️ Satya Nadella predicts that soon, your organization will have more AI Agents than employees. Are you ready to manage them?

The firehose of news from Microsoft Ignite was intense, and if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the shift to "Agentic AI" and the explosion of new identity features, you are not alone.

To cut through the noise, I gathered a stellar panel of experts for the first-ever live episode of https://t.co/YTVmebsh6k: @NathanMcNulty, @rucam365 , @Thomas_Live, and Martin Sandren (who runs Identity globally for IKEA!).

We skipped the fluff and went straight to the hard questions:

🔑 The Great Passkey Debate: Are "Synced Passkeys" a security compromise or the only realistic way to finally kill the password?

🤖 The Rise of Agent ID: You might already have hundreds of AI agents in your tenant without realizing it. We discuss how to govern this new layer of non-human identity before it becomes technical debt.

💰 The ROI of Account Recovery: Why spending $70 (or $30 tx to @UK_Daniel_Card for helping with the math 😉) on a helpdesk password reset is a thing of the past when you can automate recovery for a fraction of the cost.

🛡️ Security Copilot: Now included in E5 - we talk about how to actually use it to save time on investigations.

Whether you are a consultant or running identity for a massive enterprise, this conversation is packed with practical takeaways.

🚀 Looking back on five years of #IdentitySummit

It all began during the pandemic — our first edition was a virtual-only event, streamed live from Koblenz.
Over the years, we’ve taken the road through the Rhineland region —

with speakers and attendees from around the world.

📸 Here are some impressions from those early days up to last year’s event… Now, we’re gearing up for our latest edition on September 4th in Dortmund.
