Identity & Privileged Access When Identity Becomes the Perimeter: Why Token Theft, Dormant Accounts, and Privileged Access Are the Real Risk Attackers no longer need to break in the traditional way. A valid token, a forgotten account, or a single privileged session is often all it takes — and the real
The Silent Lifecycle Problem Behind Stale Devices, Broken Enrollment, and AVD Operational Noise By Menahem Suissa | Modern Endpoint Architect In many environments, Intune problems do not begin with policy design. They begin with object drift. Over time, device objects in Microsoft Intune, Microsoft Entra ID, and adjacent management layers stop
Most Entra ID environments don't fail because of misconfiguration.
What Changed When I Stopped Managing Servers — and Started Designing Platforms By Menahem Suissa | Modern Endpoint Architect I'm not writing this as a cloud evangelist. I'm writing this as someone who managed real RDS farms. Someone who renewed certificates at midnight. Someone who maintained a licensing
Why Most Azure Virtual Desktop Environments Accumulate Silent Technical Debt Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) environments are designed for elasticity and scale. Session hosts are deployed, scaled, patched, and eventually decommissioned. But here’s the uncomfortable truth: Most organizations do not properly decommission AVD session hosts. And over time, that creates
An architectural perspective on why MSIX App Attach is no longer optional in enterprise AVD environments. Azure Virtual Desktop has evolved — but application delivery models must evolve with it. In modern multi-session environments, traditional application layering approaches introduce operational friction, instability, and scaling challenges. This article explains why MSIX App
