Chris Paoli with Converge360 via Redmond Channel Partner cover's Microsoft's 2025 proactive defensive measures
Act like you read it: MS wants you to (and you should) implement MFA everywhere, find and fight Shadow IT & pay attention to Non-human identities.
Quick Hit: Microsoft has outlined key identity management strategies to help enterprises safeguard their data in 2025. The company emphasizes the adoption of "proactive defensive measures" to protect against growing AI-based attacks and widespread phishing campaigns. After consulting with its customers, Microsoft has identified three areas in which enterprises can harden their defenses: implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA), adopting a zero-trust security model, and enhancing identity governance. These strategies aim to strengthen security posture and mitigate risks associated with identity-based threats.
