secureUSB

The Icon is the same as IE :)

@Chlouie seems confusing to use same icon.

this brings up the notion of native apps in the cloud and security around them.

Well its similar don't forget the same IE 11 is still there to be used, Edge/Spartan will give a richer more secure web browsing experience and will be the future

@Microspecialist Makes sense to keep IE11. Using the same icon will be confusing. Hope the updates are seamless and timely :).

Well what I see is most companies are on IE11 running windows7 so migrating to Windows10 from a browser app point of view should be a seamless transition

@Microspecialist Are you saying W10 becomes the new Chrome?

@Microspecialist Or Edge is the new Chrome for MS apps? Interesting thought...

You wouldn't be the first person to make that comment ;)

The convenience of adding 2-factor authentication will be big, though it may be gated by any mandatory Azure AD requirements...

Companies that adopt Win 10 Enterprise early will definitely want to take advantage of EDP to prevent copy/paste of sensitive information and on-by-default encryption

what about data-in-motion for devices and windows? is that a problem area you guys are seeing

I'm excited about it I know lots of us are testing and its really going to appeal to those enterprise environments still on windows7 that feel windows8/8.1 is too much of a UX change

@Microspecialist do you think enterprises will go from #Windows7 to #Windows10 in the next 15 months?

Well if they will be getting it free for the first year , enterprises with SA should get it free aswell application compatibility has also improved so I don't see why not

@Marina__Donovan Some companies are as agile as an oil tanker. A few customers I spoke with JUST got to Win 7 from XP. Some Fortune 100 companies sill on XP!

@Microspecialist what if customers don't have SA and want to migrate to #Windows10? will there be other ways to get a license?

They can always buy a license or step up their agreements @Chlouie I still come across companies like that aswell

@Microspecialist Where is the best place for enterprises to get the latest info on licensing?

They could read up on https://www.microsof... or contact their Microsoft account manager if they have one or software supplier

@Microspecialist Cool. Thanks!

For folks who did not get to attend Ignite and learn about#Windows10, check out roadshow with @stephenlrose https://itpro.mobili...

IT is not the center of the universe anymore is it? Cloud allows business units (non-IT) to drive their own "bus"

Certainly self-serve IT is growing, but it is more about enabling orgs with smaller or no IT groups IMO

Well most of my communication with clients has less to do with actual technology in the beginning but more how they do business and often now with the end users in mind instead of just pushing a particular brand or technology

@leonnyan - Perhaps that's the future. I think businesses drive IT priorities, but ultimately IT makes stuff happen and has to ensure it's secure.

@Microspecialist that's awesome bc that is the main think #value - tech enables outcomes which if good drive value

. @Microspecialist I'll rephrase what is the coolest tranformative outcome you've seen with your customers using cloud and mobile

I'll mention a few Cutting cost, speeding up transactions or processes that had a longer turn around not being tied down to location one client even got closer to their customers instead of their clients running to them, how's that for customer service.

IT touches everything imo so they need to be rebooted to have services across the entire enterprise and serve the business (apps/data/security)

finally using the hardware TPM for other than BitLocker, Built-in encryption with W10/Office 2016, file-level encryption so you can use your SD card to store secure data and vacation photos

the most profound thing I see is that systems/dbs/security can both be architected to be both "big and fast" something hard to do just years ago

Excited about Windows Hello but will have to see how they execute and could be hampered with new hardware requirements (IR cameras, better fingerprint readers)

it really takes a different mind set for one of our clients they managed to make away with expensive real estate / office buildings employees had to get used to not having a workplace, working from home or other open offices

@Chlouie Windows Hello is interesting, and coupled with the Virtual Security Module (VSM) where it can be stored securely very powerful.

. @leonnyan my biggest takeaway from Microsoft Ignite was the focus on the mobile enterprise and big data

. @leonnyan on a separate note we are doing research on cloud and Azure is doing very well so that will be a driver as well in terms of security and device mgt issues

@furrier Cloud First, Mobile First

@furrier Microsoft also brought back RMS - building in per document rights management within MS eco-system apps

. @leonnyan any thoughts on best security for data-at-rest AND data-in-motion on encrypted USB devices and Window To Go??

My biggest takeaway from talking to customers at #MSIgnite in the #IronKey booth was their understanding and need for PC-on-A-Stick & the many interesting use cases.

If you attended the Windowstogo session from Microsoft pfe's you could see from the amount of hands in the room that adoption was increasing

@furrier The short answer - it depends. For portable #SecureUSB devices hardware encrypted devices are the best. Tracking Data-in-Motion is big - encryption in transit, rights management, policy based archive all can play a part.

. @Microspecialist what's the core new feature people were jazzed about?

@Microspecialist #WindowsToGo is a great way to test and experience #Windows10 before a mass deployment

RMS on data on all devices both enterprise and byod universal apps, containerization of apps its hard to find that one major thing, for me it was really Azure AD join and the enhanced security

. @Chlouie great question I was going in this direction; reusable code for any cloud any device - how to secure it?

. @Chlouie I was just saying why put security in the OS anymore that is the old way?

I like the concept - and it has been tried before. The challenge is the user experience - you still have to build experiences per device. One massive responsive design!

agree @leonnyan one benefit of native apps on devices is to take advantage of the devices form factor and unique features which changes the argument a bit

@leonnyan During the Keynote, they showed SQL Server 2016 on-prem seamlessly scaling to SQL Server 2016 in Azure to handle temporary bursts of database traffic. All possible because on-prem and Azure run the same SQL Server 2016 code.

Getting than same code running everywhere , same settings everywhere we all want that seamless user experience

For the best user experience in mobile devices you need Native. I've talked to many developers who went HTML5 vs iOS Native, and they ran into roadblocks. Universal has its place, but that place is only a thin layer of a deep ocean.
