Microsoft Entra Identity Governance

You need to be able to track the access you’ve given out and be able to revoke that access promptly when it is no longer needed. This should apply to internal and external users.

You can do this Microsoft entra identity governance. It provides you with capabilities to ensure that the right people have the right access to the right resources.

Identity Governance gives organisations the ability to govern the identity lifecycle, govern the access lifecycle, and secure privileged access for administration.

It is able to do these tasks across employees, business partners and vendors, and across services and applications both on-premises and in the cloud.

How it benefits your organisation

All the features that you know and love from when Identity Governance was a function of Azure AD  are still present.

However, now that Identity Governance is its own function in Microsoft Entra, there are now more advanced tools included that simplify identity management and governance.

New capabilities in Microsoft Entra Identity Governance let you:

Lifecycle Workflows: Customise workflows and automate repetitive tasks, such as the onboarding of new employees.

Separation of duties: Automate controls so that identities don’t get excessive access (e.g., requiring more than one person involved in a transaction to reduce fraud risk).

Connection back to on-premises: Provision back to your on-premises applications.
