Hybrid Identity Protection Conference ´26
Talk at HIP Conference
I had the pleasure of speaking at Hybrid Identity Protection Conference in Frankfurt.
My session, “PIMp Your Administration: Strengthening Zero Trust with Entra ID” focused on a topic that sounds simple in theory but becomes very real once you run it in production.
Privileged Identity Management is often introduced as a quick win for Zero Trust. Enable JIT, require MFA, done.
If only it were that easy.
In reality, PIM is powerful but it is not plug-and-play. To get real security value, organizations must understand dependencies, operational processes, and the impact on administrators.
What we looked at
During the session, we walked through practical and field-tested scenarios, including:
- PIM for Groups and why it changes delegation models
- the interaction of PIM with other technologies such as Access Packages, Lifecycle Workflows, and of course Conditional Access policies
- several PIM wins from the field
- and how Security Copilot can help identify risks in administrative setups
And yes, we did live demos.
