If your Azure environment has grown organically over time, there’s a good chance identity and permission sprawl is already creating risk behind the scenes.
This webinar will give you practical guidance to identify it, understand it and start fixing it straight away.
Join our Solution Architect, Heiko Schwarz, for a hands-on session focused on regaining control of identity and access across Azure and Microsoft 365. This webinar is built around real-world scenarios, showing how everyday decisions around access create long-term complexity, and how you can safely reduce excessive permissions without breaking your environment.
What we’ll cover:
- Why identity sprawl happens and why it’s often the result of accumulated decisions
- Common over-permissioned patterns across users, roles, service principals and workloads
- How to get clear visibility of who and what has access in your environment
- Practical approaches to reducing permissions safely without impacting live workloads
- How to prepare your identity architecture for AI, automation and non-human identities
The session also includes live demonstrations showing how to identify and remediate:
- Guest account sprawl
- Temporary and orphaned accounts
- Enterprise app and service principal sprawl
- Over-assigned role-based access
This session is ideal for Azure administrators, IT leaders, security teams and anyone responsible for managing identity and access who wants to reduce risk, improve governance and bring their environment back under control.
