Benefits that come with Microsoft Entra
For the benefits, we can easily narrow it down to three things:
1. Minimize risks from cloud access
Through Microsoft Entra Permissions Management, you get an overview of the permissions for all identities, actions, and resources.
The component mitigates the risk of data breaches by using the principle of least privilege across different cloud platforms.
In addition, a security app called “workload identity management” enables customers to assign and secure identities for any Azure AD-hosted app or service.
2. Decentralized identity community
Basically, the Verified ID component enables organizations and users to decide what information to share and with whom
Now, the magic here is that these organizations and users can take it back when necessary (instead of the apps and services doing this).
Through this, background checks are also more reliable and faster since users can store and share their credentials digitally.
3. Automatic critical identity governance
It has always been hard for security teams to provision new users and guest accounts and manage their access manually.
An identity governance feature manages identity lifecycle management, which makes onboarding and offboarding users easy.
This feature assigns and manages access rights automatically, as well as monitor and track that user access as attributes change.
