I'm Silvio Di Benedetto Founder and CEO of Inside Technologies, an Italian company focused on cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, and digital transformation. With more than 20 years in IT, I help organizations build modern, secure, and resilient infrastructures that support innovation and long-term business growth.

Over the years I've worked closely with leading vendors — Microsoft, Veeam, Parallels, and Netwrix — delivering technical sessions, producing training content, and writing for IT professionals around the world. I'm actively involved in Microsoft Azure Advisor and several Microsoft Preview Programs, including Azure Local, Microsoft Defender, Microsoft Intune, Windows Server, and Windows Admin Center.

I've been recognized as a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) in Cloud and Datacenter Management since 2012, and as a Very Important Parallels Person (VIPP) since 2016.

Community and knowledge sharing have always been at the heart of what I do. I've led the WindowServer.it community since 2006 and co-founded AperiTeams, a project that connects IT professionals, companies, and technology enthusiasts to share experiences and insights on cloud, security, and innovation.

On this blog I share technical guides, thoughts, and lessons learned from real-world IT projects — always with the same goal: making technology simpler, smarter, and more impactful.
