Redefining Microsoft Cyber Resilience: From Cloud to Business Continuity

IT teams are being asked to do more with less. You're managing a sprawling Microsoft environment, fielding security alerts, keeping the business running, and somewhere in the middle of all that, you're supposed to have a watertight resilience strategy too.

The reality is that most organisations have gaps they don't know about. Entra ID configurations that made sense two years ago may no longer be fit for purpose. Backup policies that look complete on paper often leave critical workloads uncovered. And business continuity plans that were written for a different era of IT may not account for the cloud-first environments most teams are running today.

When something goes wrong — a ransomware attack, an accidental deletion, a compromised identity — the gaps become very visible, very fast. This session is about finding them before that happens.

Join Benjamin Doyle and Connor Haylock for a practical, no-fluff session built specifically for IT teams managing Microsoft environments in the real world. You'll get an honest assessment of where organisations typically fall short, and clear guidance on what to do about it.

What you'll learn

• Entra ID security gaps that matter — The misconfigurations and identity risks most IT teams don't catch until it's too late, and how to address them systematically
• Azure Backup done right — What good backup coverage actually looks like across Microsoft workloads, and how to verify yours holds up when it counts
• From backup to business continuity — How to connect your cloud recovery capabilities to a broader BCDR strategy, so recovery is measured in hours, not days
• Where to start if you're behind — A practical prioritisation framework for teams who know they have gaps but aren't sure which to close first

Your Microsoft environment is only as resilient as your weakest link. Join this session to learn how to close the gaps in Entra ID, Azure Backup and business continuity — before an incident exposes them for you.
