Meet Up

I’m excited to announce that Microsoft has invited me to participate in the event as part of their Expert Meet-Up program. I will spend time at the Windows Server station in the Azure Infrastructure section of the Hub. Below are the days and times I’ll be available.

  • Tuesday, November 19 – 3:30 PM to 7:30 PM CST
  • Wednesday, November 20 – 2:30 PM to 6:00 PM CST
  • Thursday, November 21 – 2:30 PM to 6:00 PM CST

Let’s Connect

Be sure to drop by and say hello! We can chat about Windows Server and Azure Infrastructure. Of course, we can also discuss all the technologies I usually work with, including Entra Private Access, Always On VPN, Intune and Cloud PKI, and certificates in general. I will also attend many social gatherings during the week, so look for me at those as well.

I look forward to seeing you at the event!

Cloud PKI for Microsoft Intune on RunAs Radio

Recently, I joined my good friend Richard Campbell on his popular RunAs Radio podcast. In this episode, we discussed Microsoft’s new Cloud PKI for Intune service. Cloud PKI for Intune is a PKI-as-a-service solution that allows organizations to issue and manage digital certificates without deploying on-premises infrastructure. Optionally, Cloud PKI for Intune supports integration with an existing on-premises PKI. Cloud PKI for Intune isn’t without a few drawbacks, though. We discuss all the benefits and limitations during this podcast, so be sure to listen!
