TROOPERS, Heidelberg, June 26, 2026

This was my first time speaking at TROOPERS, and it was amazing!

I’d heard a lot in the community about this outstanding conference, that it’s special, with deeply technical security content. So I was happy my session got accepted, especially in the identity track.

My topic was Backup and Restore in Entra ID. This TROOPERS session was an evolution of a talk I’d already given in Tallinn at CTTT in January this year.

Microsoft has changed so much on the Entra platform that the TROOPERS version was effectively brand new, a roundup of the latest changes and newest Public Previews in Entra ID.

It makes me proud to be part of the TROOPERS family! I made new connections and met amazing people in Heidelberg.

All my demos were live, and — Murphy’s Law notwithstanding — everything ran smoothly. Thanks to the Troopers team and to everyone who attended and asked great questions, both during the session and afterwards.

And last but not least a few impressions from the venue
