Comment on Microsoft pulls MS365 Business Premium from nonprofits
someguy3@lemmy.world 3 days agoIdentity 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

I’m just saying it literally is Azure AD renamed:
