20h30 – 21h15: Visualize your Azure Network traffic with flow logs by Leo Visser

Do you know for sure that your application server connects to the private endpoint of your database and not the public one? Azure networking has a lot of different endpoint options, and figuring out which one is being used can be a hassle at times. Not knowing how your data flows can create issues with your compliancy and security. With the help of flow logging, you can visualize your network traffic. Just being able to see how your traffic flows can often already give a lot of insights. Utilizing the data gathered from the flow logs can help you identify attack vectors in your environment that you previously missed, and it can help you with your compliancy needs. During this talk I will show you how to set up these logs and use them to monitor your environment.

21h15 – 22h00: Windows Troubleshooting: Basic, Advanced and Expert by Sergio Padure

Have you ever wondered how deep can you go if your Windows machine has a problem? Well, wonder no more, because this talk is all about that slow descend into madness, starting with surface-level tricks, continuing into mid-depth tooling, passing through the curiously bright deep lands of Sysinternals and then finally dipping our toes into the dark arts of user-space and kernel-space debugging. Buckle up, as we embark on a humorous and informative journey to solve even the most stubborn Windows issues.

22h00 – 23h00: …: Live social with beer and wine
