Just spent like 3 days trying to figure out another Azure Tenants Intune rbac roles not applying... it was caused by the intune license group being nested under another group. Nested groups are a wonderful concept but the amount of times they have been the root of random issues is very high. #azure #intune #entraID

Maester Framework Continues to Prosper

The Maester project continues to prosper with a bunch of new features added, including several in the DevOps space. Maester usually tests tenant settings to find and highlight misconfigurations or potential issues. Some new custom tests look for missing user account properties, which is great except for the problem of finding the right accounts to check. All discussed here.

Was poking around in Microsoft #EntraID today and looking at the Secure Score for Identity. Good recommendations there—check it out!

I also saw a notice on the page to check out the “new Secure Score experience” so I did. It’s terrible. Why does Microsoft insist on downgrading their UI when they “improve” things? The new experience doesn’t allow you add or remove columns in the recommendations. It also doesn’t allow you to sort columns. These features are valuable and were available in the “old” experience.

Also, I noticed that the score was different depending on whether I was in the new or old experience — with no explanation for the difference in the Entra portal.
