About Furqan
8+ years of hands-on experience securing, deploying, and troubleshooting Microsoft environments across enterprise and cloud. I specialize in Microsoft Defender (M365 Defender, Defender for Cloud, Defender for Endpoint) and identity management in Entra ID—designing Conditional Access, administering AAD/PIM/RBAC, and integrating modern auth (SAML, OIDC, OAuth2). Known for calm, methodical incident response, I streamline Windows deployments (WDS/MDT), optimize performance, and enforce data protection (BitLocker/MBAM, DLP). I have onboarded and supported cross‑platform endpoints (Windows, Linux, macOS), built Sentinel analytics for threat detection, and improved compliance via Secure Score and policy automation. Backed by an MBA and multiple Microsoft certifications (AZ‑500, SC‑100, SC‑200, AZ‑104, AZ‑900, SC‑300, SC‑900, AI‑900), I bring clear communication, curiosity, and a bias for practical results.
