February 2017 Meeting

***Online Lunch Time Meeting***

February 14th 11:30am
Topic: Understanding and Leveraging Microsoft’s Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) Suite
Location: Online Meeting (link sent before meeting)
Speaker: Sean P. McDonough
Sponsor: SharePoint Saturday Nashville

Topic Details
The Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) Suite is a product offering that receives a lot of attention and “air time” from Microsoft nowadays. Although many enterprise architects, technical decision makers, and IT Pros have heard about EMS, many don’t know exactly what it is and what it does. In this session, we will be looking closely at EMS and the growing set of identity, security, data, and device management problems that it addresses. We will look at each of the workloads and capabilities within EMS, how they work, and some practical examples of solutions involving each. We will also clear-up the confusion that frequently arises in understanding where Office 365 ends and EMS begins. By the end of this session, you will understand what EMS is, the role that it plays in secure cloud solutions, and why it is a natural fit for consumers already leveraging Office 365 in their day-to-day operations.   

Be sure to forward this meeting info to your colleagues and friends!
