Identity Workshop – A Cloud Accelerator Workshop

With identity attacks on the rise, this workshop provides you with the tools and resources needed to evolve your infrastructure by securing identities and devices.  You will gain a strategic plan based on recommendations from SoHo’s Microsoft identity team, customized to your organizational needs.

The deliverables include:

• Understanding your identity goals and objectives
• An evaluation of your current and desired identity postures
• Insights into your application estates
• Development of joint deployment plans based on key results, recommendations, and next steps

Given the complexity of identities, data, applications, and devices, it’s essential to ensure that the right people securely access the right information. In this workshop, SoHo will show you how identity and devices are the fundamental pillars of an integrated security philosophy and an end-to-end security strategy.

Through this workshop, you will:

• Get a rating of your security posture and see how it compares to your peers
• Gain insights into apps used in your environment – even ones unsanctioned by IT
• Understand how to prevent identities from being compromised
• Learn how to reduce costs and improve business agility and security with simplified app access
• Secure user identities on all devices
