Overview:
Microsoft Entra is Microsoft's unified identity and network access platform, bringing together Azure Active Directory, Permissions Management, Verified ID, and secure network access into a comprehensive identity governance solution.
This workshop introduces the full Entra product family and provides hands-on guidance for configuring its core capabilities. Attendees will explore Entra ID, formerly Azure AD, for user and group management, Conditional Access for adaptive security policies, Entra ID Governance for access reviews and entitlement management, and Entra Permissions Management for multi-cloud permissions oversight. The session equips attendees with the foundational knowledge to build a Zero Trust identity strategy using Microsoft Entra.
