Extra opportunity: Hands-on training in hybrid auditing or recovery
Want even more from The Experts Conference 2023? If you’re a Change Auditor or Recovery Manager for Active Directory customer, you’re eligible for a special opportunity: Arrive a day early for an expert-led, hands-on workshop on your choice of Quest solutions:
- Hybrid auditing solutions (for current Change Auditor users only) — Learn how you can use Change Auditor to detect threats like DCShadow attacks and changes to vital AD attributes like SIDHistory or AdminSDHolder. Quest experts will walk you through blocking changes to vital AD objects like the Domain Admins group and your critical GPOs, as well as how to get alerts whenever someone attempts to make such modifications. We will also explore how to audit your Azure AD with On Demand Audit.
- Hybrid recovery solutions (for current Recovery Manager for Active Directory users only) — Quest product experts will show exactly how to automate the 40-step process for recovering an AD forest. Plus, you’ll discover how to eliminate the risk of malware re-infection during the recovery process, how to secure and isolate your AD backups, and how to use On Demand Recovery to restore Azure AD items that the Recycle Bin does not cover.
These technical workshops will be led by Quest product experts who really know their stuff. They will step you through common use cases and best practices so you can return to work knowing exactly how to use these solutions to solve your organization’s most pressing problems. Discover new features you may be missing to get even more value from your Quest investments.
With the smaller setting of the pre-conference workshop, you’ll be able to readily network with both Quest experts and other Quest customers. Training includes breakfast, lunch and a post-training happy hour, as well as take-home materials to help you put everything you learned into practice. Check the conference website for more details.
