Comment on Microsoft pulls MS365 Business Premium from nonprofits

Yeah office isn’t the what orgs care about losing with this change. Business premium was the lowest cost license option available to non-profits that allowed access to identity management using entra.

Identity and access management ensures that the right people, machines, and software components get access to the right resources at the right time. First, the person, machine, or software component proves they’re who or what they claim to be. Then, the person, machine, or software component is allowed or denied access to or use of certain resources.

So that’s what’s that called. Is that also what tracks who access what and when?

  Yeah. Entra is basically the cloud version of Active Directory, it lets you use SAML to build single sign on systems that use your Microsoft account as the identity provider

    Not “basically” btw - entra is the azure/cloud version of AD. It was renamed.

    It serves the same function , but comparing the two is kind of apples to oranges at this point
