Windows Hello for Business

Passwordless authentication with biometrics or PIN. Phishing-resistant, helpdesk-relieving, included in every Windows Pro, Enterprise, and Education license.

Passwords Are Your Biggest Security Risk

A password can be phished, guessed, reused, and typed into the wrong window. Every forgotten one lands on your helpdesk, and every reset is minutes your team does not get back. And SMS codes do not meet the phishing-resistant authentication strength in Microsoft Entra ID.

Windows Hello for Business offers passwordless authentication: login via face recognition, fingerprint, or PIN — phishing-resistant, device-bound, Zero Trust compliant. Included in every Windows Pro, Enterprise, and Education license. Cloud Kerberos Trust is the one hybrid path without a PKI.

ACTIVITIES IN DETAIL

DELIVERABLES

Deployment Model: Model and trust type decided, with the ruled-out options and the reason
Readiness Check: DC patch level, Entra Connect, Windows builds, TPM and biometrics per model
Trust Configuration: The Entra Kerberos server object created for Cloud Kerberos Trust
Policy Configuration: Intune settings catalog profile for PIN complexity, TPM, and biometrics
Conditional Access: Phishing-resistant strength, report-only first, break-glass excluded
Pilot and Rollout: Provisioning and single sign-on validated, then waves with user material

3 steps. From start to finished project

How a typical Microsoft project runs with DAMALO

STEP 1

Choose a blueprint and analyze your environment

Select a proven blueprint. AI agents pull your licenses, current config, and compliance needs into the plan. No generic advice.

STEP 2

Receive your plan and start implementation

Review the plan. AI agents draft architecture, sequence tasks, and map dependencies to Microsoft best practices. Tailored to your tenant.

STEP 3

Guided implementation through to completion

Execute step by step. AI agents provide PowerShell scripts, admin center deep-links, and walkthroughs. Every change auto-documented.

The result: A completed Microsoft project in 1-2 weeks. Documented. Audit-ready. Understood by your team. Adjustable at any time. No change requests. No follow-up engagements.

A cleanly configured tenant is the foundation. These blueprints build directly on it

MFA & Conditional Access

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Uncontrolled access is a primary risk. Microsoft now deploys its own managed Conditional Access policies into eligible tenants and switches them on after 45 days, planned or not.

Scope: Gather requirements per user group - Policies for location, device/platform, apps, sign-in risk on P2 - Block legacy authentication, activate session controls - Structured rollout: Report-Only → Pilot → Go-Live

Result: Verifiably secured access with clear policies and high usability.

Self-Service Password Reset

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Forgotten passwords block employees and burden the helpdesk. From 7 September 2026, SSPR accepts only methods a user registered themselves — synced phone numbers stop counting.

Scope: Implement SSPR in Microsoft Entra ID - Method set decided against the 2027 method retirements - Configure hybrid environments (writeback to on-premises AD) - Structured pilot and staged rollout

Result: Password resets handled by users instead of the helpdesk, writeback validated, and faster resolution for end users.

Privileged Identity Management

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Permanently assigned admin roles are the preferred target for attackers and insider threats.

Scope: Inventory current Entra ID role assignments - Identify critical roles for PIM protection - Configure just-in-time access, approval workflows, and access reviews - Migrate permanent assignments, including role-assignable groups, into PIM

Result: Every privileged activation time-bound, justified and auditable, approved where the role requires it - even if an admin account is compromised.
