// My Security Journey
Microsoft Security became part of my work in February 2026 at XAPT — starting with Defender for Endpoint through Intune, then expanding into Defender for Office 365 and Defender for Cloud Apps. I handled real incidents: suspicious sign-ins, compromised accounts, and a significant CVE backlog surfaced by DRATA compliance scanning. I worked through each finding, assessed the risk, and resolved what I could. Now I'm preparing for the SC-200 exam — planned for October 2026 — and actively building my KQL skills to work independently in Sentinel.

Azure Monitor Agent Migration
140 Servers
Hybrid Environment
// Challenge
Legacy Microsoft Monitoring Agent (MMA) was reaching end-of-support across a hybrid environment of 140 Azure and on-premises servers. A migration to the modern Azure Monitor Agent was required without disrupting monitoring coverage.
// Solution
Planned and executed a full MMA to AMA migration across all 140 hybrid servers. Deployed Data Collection Rules (DCRs), validated log ingestion into Log Analytics workspaces, and decommissioned the legacy agent with zero monitoring gaps.
// Result
All 140 servers successfully migrated to AMA. Modern monitoring infrastructure in place with improved performance, centralised data collection rules, and full readiness for future Azure Monitor features.

Cloud-Only Patch Management with Azure ARC
140 Servers
Hybrid + On-Prem
// Challenge
Organisation was running WSUS for on-premises server patching — a high-maintenance legacy solution lacking visibility and central control across hybrid infrastructure.
// Solution
Decommissioned WSUS and migrated to Azure Update Manager. Enrolled all on-premises servers into Azure ARC, configured patching schedules, maintenance windows, and compliance reporting from the Azure portal.
// Result
140 servers managed from a single cloud-based pane of glass. WSUS fully retired. Patch compliance visibility improved with automated reporting and centralised control over both Azure and on-premises infrastructure.

Full Microsoft Intune Deployment
300 Devices
Windows + Android
// Challenge
Organisation needed a modern cloud-based endpoint management solution for a mixed device fleet of Windows 11 laptops and Android devices — including both corporate-owned and BYOD devices.
// Solution
Implemented Microsoft Intune end-to-end. Windows 11 enrolled via Autopilot for zero-touch deployment. Android devices enrolled in two profiles — BYOD with Work Profile separation, and fully managed corporate devices. Deployed apps, compliance and configuration policies across all 300 devices.
// Result
300 devices fully managed under Intune. Zero-touch Windows deployment via Autopilot reduced IT onboarding time significantly. Android BYOD users maintain personal privacy while corporate data stays protected.
