Conditional Access policies in Report-only Mode…Now what? Conditional access policies in Report-only mode allow you to evaluate the impact of Conditional Access policies before you enable them. For instance, you can see conditional access policies in Report-only mode in the Azure AD sign-in logs, but there’s more to it and that’s what this post is […]
Blocking access to Microsoft 365 outside the Android for Work Profile with Endpoint Manager
This post is about blocking access to Microsoft 365 outside the Android for Work Profile with Endpoint Manager. After seeing a question on techcommunity I thought I might as well do a quick post on this topic. Please note: Normally you would block access to Microsoft 365 resources by using a combination of device compliance […]
What Zombies can teach you about Security Baselines
This month, we had a company event at Rapid Circle and I did a presentation about Security Baselines vs Endpoint Protection templates vs Settings Catalog vs device configuration policies. Yeah… that’s a mouth full. For a change, I didn’t want to do a technical deep dive, but instead, talk more about some best practices and […]
Blocking BYOD based on unsupported OS versions
A couple of days ago, a colleague asked me if it was possible to Block BYOD based on unsupported OS versions from accessing Microsoft 365 resources like Exchange Online or SharePoint Online and Teams, when using the desktop apps on unmanaged devices with older OS versions. In this scenario, BYOD’s are not allowed to MDM […]

OneDrive and its (Un)known Folder Move (KFM) – Part 1
Sometimes I stumble upon app behavior that intrigues me. In this case, there appeared to be a disconnect between the naming of Known Folders in OneDrive across users. Somehow, some users had English folder names, while others showed Dutch folder names. I couldn’t, for the life of me, see the logic in it. At first […]
going passwordless on shared Windows devices
Do you still prefer the password madness? While shared windows 10 scenario’s are excellent for passwordless, most users still sign in with their username and password which is old-school these days right? Besides using passwords, most will complain about long lasting logon times, low disk space due to many users and updates that install during […]
Eliminating passwords
Why is going passwordless such a thing and is it really safer than actually using passwords? When you find yourself asking this question, remember this; When it comes to passwords, human behavior is very predictable. Either a password is secure enough but hard to remember (%J5Uc#vN9s^hLg03P*ySE0Hca4!Ws$), or a password is easy to remember but not […]
Password Freedom
What does going passwordless mean to you? Think about that for a minute. It’s a long journey and we can’t get there in a few clicks. I’ve seen a lot of different implementations, but to me, going passwordless means password freedom. It means I no longer need to remember a complex string of letters, numbers, […]
