Identity
Here is an overview of what will be covered in this section :
We will start with Entra ID, which serves as a central hub for identity management. It acts as an intermediary between different types of identities and services.
On-premises identities focus on security measures such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) and conditional access policies. We will not explore this topic in detail, as it is covered in the AZ-500 course.
Next, B2B stands for Business-to-Business, which allows us to integrate external identities into our Entra ID. This involves enabling guest users from partner companies to access our resources, which helps us avoid creating new users in our directory.
Finally, Entra ID encompasses users and groups that belong to the organisation in the cloud.
Entra ID
Entra ID is a crucial point of Microsoft Cloud Services as it centrally manages access for Azure service, Microsoft 365, and other SaaS applications. If you're seeking seamless access to your emails, calendars, documents, and more, all through a single sign-up process, Microsoft Entra proves invaluable for any company. This service operates upstream, verifying your identity and seamlessly granting access to the necessary tools.
Entra ID primarily ensures cloud-based identity and directory management, facilitating access to all SaaS solutions. Additionally, it provides self-service options for users, allowing them to reset passwords, manage authentication, and handle device management.
It seamlessly integrates with on-premise applications, ensuring secure collaboration across the company, device management, and connections to both SaaS applications and Active Directory.
