Microsoft Entra ID / Active Directory

Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) is a comprehensive identity and access management (IAM) solution providing:

  • Single sign-on (SSO): Access multiple applications with one set of credentials.
  • Multi-factor authentication (MFA): Add an extra layer of security.
  • Conditional access: Grant access based on specific conditions.
  • Directory synchronization: Easily manage user identities across systems.
