Behind the scenes of the live podcast studio at #NWS2025. We’ve been recording fresh Tech Takes podcast episodes - including this one on cloud assist. Stay tuned! 👀

Off to Nottingham for @jisc.bsky.social #nws25 .
Catch me tomorrow for a session on cloud assist and both days for a chat.

I'll be there showing off Cloud assist

Yep mentions it in the docs but doesn't tell you how to exclude it. Hopefully @merill.net will have an idea

@lukasberan.com @merill.net any change the authenticator app be out into the enterprise app catalog so we can exclude it from conditional app policies for passkey enrolment? It gets caught by our require app protection / compliant device policies stopping passkey setup.

Up early to head to the big smoke (London) for a new starter on boarding. Left the house and it was dark, got a lovely sunrise on the trip down to NWP, and now sat in first class on route to PAD (I paid for my upgrade)

I did wonder what cause it to fail

Jisc cloud assist verified publisher

Jisc cloud assist active directory powershell script (v0.1)

The @jisc.bsky.social cloud assist app now has some basic active directory health checks and is now a verified app.

JCA BETA will be coming in January with a v1 release end of March (hopefully).

The AD health checks will be expanded once Jisc's CSIRT/SOC give some advice I'm sure.

When did admin.cloud.microsoft/sharepoint become a thing???? No more tenant-admin.sharepoint.com 🤯.

p.s. I know admin.microsoft.com/sharepoint used to redirect, but no redirect anymore.

@mssharepoint.bsky.social

Depending on which train I get to/from temple meads I frequent BPW weekly. I do remember when it was just 2 platforms in the slam door days, with the voyagers new with Virgin CX.

Also TFW's MK4 service if you want some excellent food, 1st upgrades are even on Seatfrog now

New feature rolling out to @jisc.bsky.social's cloud assist reports, OS rollup. The device summary report will make reporting for 2.4 of @ncscuk.bsky.social's cyber essentials even easier.

Announced @jisc.bsky.social's Security Conference was Jisc Cloud Assist, a tool to help Edu customers update their M365 tenant with Jisc recommended config. For those on the ALPHA a roadmap for the tool is now live.

More to come.
