About the session

Azure DevOps is powerful—but with great power comes a surprising number of default settings that quietly leave your pipelines, code, and credentials exposed. In this session, Solliance Distinguished Engineer Jim Counts walks through ten security misconfigurations that every organization should fix today to prevent avoidable incidents and compliance gaps.

You’ll see how these risks appear in real-world environments—and exactly how to close them using built-in features like permission scoping, template enforcement, and auditing. The session blends practical configuration guidance with lessons learned from enterprise case studies, giving you a clear, actionable roadmap to harden Azure DevOps without slowing down your teams.
