Modern Management Summit 2026

With more and more applications being web based, the most important application we have on our modern devices Microsoft Edge and browsers.
Traditionally we have managed them using Group Policy and/or Intune. But with the introduction of the Edge management service in Microsoft Edge (and Google Chrome) we now have a modern way! Let users request their Extensions, manage extensions and settings in a modern way!
During this demo heavy session we will go through how to configure, secure and enforce a browser Edge, and more important what not to do!

Simplify your life, by harnessing the combined power of Windows 365 Cloud PCs and Windows Autopilot. In this session you will discover how these technologies deliver a seamless, zero-touch provisioning experience, from automated deployment to cloud-based, personalized desktops, drawing on real-world examples and live demonstrations. The session will provide practical strategies to reduce IT workload, speed up onboarding, improve user satisfaction, and ensure devices are secure, compliant, and ready for productivity preparing organizations.

Curious about how to build a rock-solid Privileged Access Workstation (PAW) that meets today’s toughest security demands? Join us for a deep dive into the why, what, and how of PAWs - from hardened Windows configurations and ACfB to secure provisioning, network isolation, and seamless Intune management. We’ll demystify concepts like browse-up/browse-down, explore the quirks of hardware tokens, and explain why a separate Entra tenant might be your best friend. Whether you're starting from scratch or refining your setup, this session will arm you with practical insights to elevate your security posture.

Our examples will focus on the ETSI TS 103 994-1 for conforming to UK TSA regulation but the concepts are universal for virtually any sector requiring a PAW.

Modern endpoint teams don’t need more dashboards, they need faster decisions and fewer incidents. In this session, you’ll see how ControlUp ONE combines deep endpoint telemetry with newly released AI capabilities to surface what matters, explain likely root cause, guide the next best action, and fix them automatically. We’ll walk through real-world scenarios (slow logons, Wi-Fi instability, crashes, update regressions...) and show how AI insights plus automation turn DEX into measurable outcomes: lower ticket volume, shorter MTTR, and higher employee productivity.

This deep dive explains how Microsoft Intune operates at scale, walking through the end to end architecture for policy, app, and configuration delivery. The session highlights where latency can occur, why some scenarios are faster than others, and places a strong focus on the latest performance improvements, recent optimizations, and future plans to further reduce latency and improve reliability. The session concludes with a short live Q&A and shared learnings from real world deployments.
