Microsoft Automanage is now Generally Available!

I know I know, I vanished

Sorry about that! So here is a preview of what ol' FoxDeploy's been doing since I vanished into Redmond years ago

This is what I’ve been working on for last little bit at Microsoft!

I was always annoyed at how many policies you had to assign before to assign the Azure Baselines. So I fixed it! And along the way we added CIS for Linux and Windows and more!

Did you know that you can now fully configure *every* setting for Azure Windows Baseline and CIS Benchmarks and easily assign them to your whole organization?

Try it out, it's Generally Available! #Azure #Governance #CISBenchmark

My team is hiring!

Do you want to work on the core bits of Azure? Hit me up!

Want to work with me? I may know of an opening coming soon. Reply here or DM me! #MSFT #openToWork

I got zero responses so this lets me know that folks remember what it was like to work with me!

Hey guys, I’m heading to San Francisco for #microsoft #ignite #msignite!

Come see me at this Microsoft expert booth on weds or in lab 520!

I could not believe the scope of Silksong! It's got the kind of depth and progression that I have dreamed of in games

I'll be at #MicrosoftIgnite 2025! Come say hi in San Francisco next month. I'll be in the MSFT booth as well as helping to run the "Start, Get and Stay Resilient with Azure" lab on Thurs!

So I made @Balatro mod! 40+ jokers, with all hand drawn pixel art by my friends and especially by my wife!

Please give it a try!

If Bitlocker and LAPS keys need to be searched manually per device or per user then my IntuneDeviceDetailGUI might help. You can search by devicename or by user and get Bitlocker and LAPS keys easily using my IntuneDeviceDetailsGUI tool. github.com/petripaavola/I… #CrowdStrike

You have just finished remediating your last machine impacted by #crowdStrike #bluescreen, but now you have no idea who can access all the BitLocker keys you just exported! 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐑𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐢𝐭𝐋𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫 𝐤𝐞𝐲𝐬!

Luckily for you, if you are using Microsoft Intune and storing your BitLocker keys in Entra, you can use this super simple script to queue a key rotation job on each device. When the device next checks in, the key will be rotated!

I have seen various iterations of this type of thing over the last 24 hours, all seem to use custom app registrations, secret keys and certificates. This is a one-off job you should run in the 𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭, please don't necessarily open your org to additional risk! This is something I cover in my book "Microsoft Graph PowerShell for Administrators".

New blog post! Getting a human readable day of the week in KQL / Kusto!

KQL Quickie - Human Readable day of the week (foxdeploy.com)

Today i did something pretty neat, automatic error retrieval during a failed azure deployment for devops pipelines.

Think I’ll blog it!

After months of no blog posts, this week I became acquainted with Azure Devops, which gave me material enough for three blog posts!

I prefer to put my raw SQL statements in textboxes on the client side so customers can modify them directly and have more control.

My scary Halloween costume.

This is a huge drop off, and also a sign of what can happen when a bad aspect of the user base is left to grow unchecked.

I strove to be a nice person on Stack, because there were so many mean people who tore me down early in my career.

This may be the first large layoff directly due to AI:
> people asking ChatGPT instead of StackOverflow
> usage & ad revenue declines
> having to lay people off to stay profitable / survive
