Many customers use ADFS to provide single sign-on to SaaS applications. In our current reality of a highly dispersed remote workforce, now more than ever identity is your control plane to have greater visibility and control over who has access to what, when they should have it, and under what conditions.  With Azure AD, you can have a single control plane for all your apps, users and devices.  Azure AD isn’t just an Active Directory in the Cloud, it's a universal identity platform, Strong identity foundation for Zero Trust, and built in Identity Governance mechanisms. Azure AD supports open standards like SAML, OAUTH2, OpenID, SCIM and WebAuthn, with built-in integrations for over 3000 3rd party applications and can be easily configured to connect your existing applications, in the cloud or on-premises.

With Azure AD, you get a single control plane for all your apps – and when we say all your apps, we truly mean ALL your apps. From Microsoft apps like Office 365, to SaaS apps like Workday, ServiceNow, Box, Salesforce as well as your on-premises apps that might be using legacy authentication protocols. Once you bring in all your apps under one control plane, you can start to unlock all the benefits Azure AD  and start to unify  app management and benefit from:

  • Better security, governance, and reliability.  It offers the ability to train models and algorithms and provides ways to integrate solutions seamlessly for better security than you can achieve on-premises.​
  • Provides better end user experiences by ensuring seamless access to apps and resources with a common, seamless identity across cloud and on-premises.
  • With the cloud you can manage all your apps from a single screen and reduce costs by retiring on-prem infrastructure.

The migration process itself is quite simple, especially when you apply a high-level view of the entire process, like we will cover today.   Join us to learn about this process and how easy it is to move from ADFS to Azure AD!
