  1. SCCM in NETID

    Hey!! We've been asking for this for years. What's the deal!?

    This topic will cover:
    -why this has taken so long
    -what is currently happening (hopefully with demos)
    -what we plan
    -why we may never have fully delegated SCCM (and there is an opportunity to have a good MS follow-up topic on delegated SCCM, if there is enough interest)

  2. How to minimize the amount of end user storage you have to manage within your UW unit

    How to configure Win 10 / Server 2017 desktops & terminal servers to use the least amount of spinning disk in your local unit for user data (student, faculty, staff) How much of user data (profile, desktop, documents, etc) can be put in the U-Drive or other places so local units can provide software and services but don't have to manage end user storage. What other storage services, besides UDrive, can be auto-mounted with GPO objects using UWNETID credentials at login time.

  4. What is the Managed Workstation service?

    Nebula has been a UW fixture for over 20 years, with a ton of both negative and positive associations, that intentionally rebranded itself to Managed Workstation to reset everyone's expectations of what it is. This topic will be a presentation on what the service currently is, a forward look at what we have planned, and interactive exploration of how the service might meet your needs.

  6. Service account management

    We universally do a poor job of tracking what service accounts are used where, have what permissions/privileges, and who has access to them. Having a good tracking mechanism for all of this info would improvement management, and likely reduce risk. A few folks in UW-IT have been exploring this topic, with some ideas and a potential project to initially advance this with a small scope. Discussion would cover canvasing the perceived problem space, discussing how to address it, and how to move this forward on a broader scale.

  7. Mitigating lateral escalation compromises (pass the hash)

    We'll review the problem, then focus discussion on practical actions we can take to mitigate it. Some obvious possibilities for review (which may require their own session): Our Microsoft Advanced Threat Analytics deployment, Microsoft's Privileged Access Workstations, approaches to reduce privileges, and local admin password management.
