Microsoft Entra has introduced a soft-delete feature for device objects in public preview, allowing administrators to recover accidentally deleted Entra joined or registered devices within a set retention period. This safety mechanism preserves critical identity data and security artifacts, reducing the operational risk of permanent data loss. Additionally, Entra Connect Sync now officially supports Windows Server 2025, though Microsoft is encouraging a transition toward the cloud-native Entra Cloud Sync for simplified hybrid identity management.
