Entra

Entra = A suite of identity and access management solutions by Microsoft, designed to help organizations secure and manage user access to applications, devices, and resources.
Entra Identity Governance = A service that enables organizations to manage identity lifecycle processes, including user provisioning, access requests, and role-based access controls.
Entra Permissions Management = A tool for managing permissions across multiple cloud environments, ensuring the principle of least privilege is followed and reducing security risks.
Entra Verified ID = A decentralized identity solution that enables users to manage and share verified identity information securely.
Entra Workload Identities = A solution for managing identities for workloads, applications, and services in cloud environments, improving security and compliance.
Entra External Identities = A service that allows organizations to securely collaborate with external users, providing access to apps and resources while maintaining control over identity management.
Identity protection = A set of policies and tools designed to safeguard user identities from fraud and unauthorized access using risk-based authentication and multi-factor authentication (MFA).
Access management = The process of ensuring that users have the appropriate level of access to applications, data, and resources, based on their roles and identities.
Zero Trust security model = A security framework that assumes no user or device is trusted by default, requiring strict verification of identities and access controls.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) = A security method that requires users to provide two or more forms of verification (e.g., password, phone number, biometrics) before accessing resources.
Conditional access = A policy-based approach to controlling access to applications and resources based on conditions such as location, device state, and user risk level.
Entra Connect = A tool that enables synchronization of on-premises Active Directory with Azure Active Directory, allowing hybrid identity management across on-premises and cloud resources.
Access reviews = A process in Entra that allows organizations to periodically review and adjust user access to resources, ensuring that access is appropriate and up to date.
Entra Insights = A service that provides visibility and analytics on identity and access management activity, helping organizations identify potential security risks and compliance issues.
Role-based access control (RBAC) = A method of restricting access to resources based on the roles assigned to users within an organization, ensuring the principle of least privilege.
