If you have Office 365, Azure or any other Microsoft cloud service you have Azure Active Directory.
And like on-prem AD, Azure AD is the heart and soul of security for:
- Office 365
- Azure VMs, Storage, etc.
- Other cloud services integrated with Azure AD like CRM
But in the most common hybrid scenarios, Azure AD can even impact security back home on your on-prem Active Directory. After all, Azure AD Connect is a 2-way street in most deployments.
You are probably using AD Connect and ADFS, and when federation and synchronization are working it’s easy to forget Azure AD even exists. But that’s dangerous. And it’s dangerous to treat Azure AD as a separate entity from your on-prem AD or to simply view Azure AD as a projection of on-prem AD in the cloud.
In this webinar, we will dive into the security features of Azure AD and identify the risks that need to be recognized and mitigated.
