Acerca de los autores

With almost 20 years of industry experience and relevant certifications, Paul Huijbregts has a long history of working with customers across the world leveraging his passion for (Microsoft) security solutions - and being brutally honest about them.

After joining Microsoft in 2016 and engaging regularly with Defender for Endpoint teams, Paul moved to Redmond (together with his wife and kids) to join them and become a product manager - in the middle of the pandemic (October 2020). Here, he is on what is called the "Platforms" team, working on solutions across operating systems and environments, focusing primarily on server endpoints and security management. His motto is: "I drink beer and I know Microsoft security things."



Joe Anich has 15 years of experience in the IT industry ranging from endpoint management with a focus on SCCM and Intune to endpoint security and incident response. Currently working on Microsoft's Detection and Response Team (DART), he works closely with customers during critical moments. Working in incident response has given Joe insight into SOC operations and how to help teams around the world improve their security posture as a whole. Outside of work, Joe enjoys running around the house with his 2-year-old son playing "chase me." Fun fact: During the late 90s, Joe could be found at the roller-skating rink most Friday nights, gliding around the rink with a super rope in hand, maybe in JNCOs or Lee Pipes, vibing to 90s hip hop.

Justen Graves is a security engineer with 14 years of IT experience. Most of his career has been focused on endpoint enablement and security, with the last 4 years spent at Microsoft. Currently working in Microsoft's Cyber Defense Operations Center, their internal SOC, he uses tools such as Microsoft Defender for Endpoint every day to defend corporate Microsoft from attack.Justen has a BS in cybersecurity and an MBA. He holds many industry certifications, including CISSP, PMP, and GSEC, and several Microsoft certifications, including Azure Solutions Architect Expert and Enterprise Administrator Expert. Starting his career at Walmart and managing to never relocate, he resides in Northwest Arkansas with his wife and three children.
