Frictionless user experience through single sign-on (SSO)
Simplified app deployment with a centralized user portal
Ability to enforce strong risk-based access policies with identity protection and Conditional Access
Automated provisioning workflows and self-service tools to help you reduce IT costs
Apps that work great with Azure AD
Boost productivity for all users
Unburden users of having to memorize credentials for different apps or reusing weak passwords, increasing the risk of data breach. With Azure AD, users can conveniently access all their apps with SSO from any location, on any device, from a centralized and branded portal for a simplified user experience and better productivity.
Accelerate user provisioning
Configure automatic user provisioning and deprovisioning for just-in-time access to new resources upon hire or role-change. Ensure that all identities in your systems are kept up to date.
Enhance app security
Create strong risk-based security policies for each application using Azure AD Conditional Access. Measure the user, location, and device risk to determine whether access should be allowed, verified, limited, or blocked.
Scale IT efficiencies
Reduce support time and costs by offering self-service password reset tools to your employees and allow IT resources to focus on high value activities.
