Semperis Announces Full Lineup of Speakers at Award-Winning Hybrid Identity Protection Conference, Europe
Microsoft’s Holger Zimmermann and Security Consultant, Jorge De Almeida, join Microsoft MVP Tony Redmond and identity guru John Craddock
LONDON – Semperis, the pioneer in identity-driven cyber resilience for enterprises, today announced the full lineup for the inaugural Hybrid Identity Protection (HIP) Europe Virtual Conference 2021, taking place on 30 June and 1 July 2021. The first European edition of the award-winning global Hybrid Identity Protection conference series, HIP Europe will bring together leading experts working at the intersection between identity and security to provide a deep dive into the latest trends and challenges in managing hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
The full lineup will join the keynotes that were announced in May. Microsoft MVP Tony Redmond, aka the Exchange Godfather, will kick off the conference with his keynote “The Future of Microsoft Cloud Services.” In this keynote session, Tony Redmond will look at the economics, software engineering, ecosystem, and landscape of Microsoft 365 and discuss the reliability and security of Office 365.
Day two of the conference will be opened by Microsoft Directory Services MVP and identity guru John Craddock. John’s session will look at “The Future of Identity: DIDs and VCs.” This keynote will be an introduction to the future of identity with Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs). What if users owned their identity without dependence on identity providers and only needed to prove who they are once, using that proof as often as necessary?
The full lineup includes speakers from across Europe, with a wealth of experience in the hybrid identity world. The lineup includes the following speakers, and subsequent presentations:
Technical Specialist – Security & Compliance, Microsoft, Holger Zimmermann: Identify Lateral Movement Paths with Microsoft Defender for Identity (MDI)
