Microsoft Entra ID: Admin Consent Workflow for Secure Application Permissions

The Admin Consent Workflow in Microsoft Entra ID is a feature designed to manage user consent for enterprise application permissions. It allows administrators to review, approve, or deny permission requests before access is granted. Instead of allowing users to grant extensive permissions directly, the Admin Consent Workflow ensures that only authorized applications can access sensitive data. For instance, an application might request permission to access a user’s profile or read the contents of their mailbox. By introducing this workflow, organizations can effectively enforce the principle of least privilege and reduce the risk of unintentional data exposure.

Securing Microsoft 365 Apps with Microsoft Entra Global Secure Access

Strengthening secure access to Microsoft 365: Microsoft Entra Global Secure Access provides encrypted access to Microsoft 365 services such as Exchange Online and SharePoint Online through the Microsoft traffic profile. All data traffic is routed through protected network paths, ensuring reliable protection against unauthorized access.

Enhancing Security with Microsoft Entra Protected Actions and Conditional Access

Microsoft Entra Protected Actions safeguard highly sensitive administrative operations in Microsoft Entra by requiring an additional layer of authentication. When a user attempts to perform such an action, they must first meet the defined policies. For example, specific actions can be restricted to devices that are either Microsoft Entra Joined or Microsoft Entra Hybrid Joined, or may require phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication prior to execution.
