Microsoft Entra is a family of identity and network access products designed to help organizations implement a Zero Trust security strategy. It creates a trust fabric that verifies identities, validates access conditions, checks permissions, encrypts connection channels, and monitors for potential compromises.
What are the key components of Microsoft Entra?
The Microsoft Entra product family includes several key components: Microsoft Entra ID for identity and access management, Microsoft Entra Domain Services for managed domain services, Microsoft Entra Private Access for securing access to private apps, and Microsoft Entra External ID for managing external identities. Each component addresses different aspects of secure access and identity management.
How can organizations manage Microsoft Entra?
Organizations can manage their Microsoft Entra deployment using the Microsoft Entra admin center, a web-based portal for configuration and management, and the Microsoft Graph API, which allows for automation of administrative tasks, including license deployments and user lifecycle management.
