Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. You’ve both been at Microsoft for a little while, but give us a little bit of your background and the things you focus on today. 

Topic 2 - Let’s start with some basics - in the world of Cloud, what is Identity?

Topic 3 - Things get more complicated as we incorporate more things associated with people or accounts (e.g. multiple devices, VPNs) or distributed applications or 3rd-parties (e.g. contractors, etc..) How does that shift the Identity conversation? 

Topic 4 - How does a business attempt to not only keep track of all of this, but enforce it in various ways? (connected, disconnected, people leave, applications change, etc.)

Topic 5 - What are some of the ways that Microsoft addresses all these complex Identity challenges? 

Topic 6 - Looking forward, what are some areas that are going to be the new frontier for Identity challenges, or some technologies that will make things easier?
