Kerberos Cloud Trust is a hybrid authentication protocol developed by Microsoft to enable secure and passwordless sign-ins. Kerberos Cloud Trust combines the strengths of Kerberos and Windows Hello for Business to offer a modern, secure, and user-friendly authentication solution. It is particularly useful in hybrid environments where both cloud and on-premises resources are utilized. Users authenticate securely and seamlessly both locally and in the cloud.
The regular roll over of the Kerberos decryption key is crucial to ensure the security and integrity of seamless Single Sign-On (SSO) in hybrid IT environments. Microsoft recommends rolling over this key every 30 days to close potential security gaps and ensure smooth integration between on-premises Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID. This process can be automated to minimize administrative effort and ensure continuous security.
Microsoft Entra Cloud Sync is an advanced synchronization solution that enables seamless integration of objects from Active Directory into Microsoft Entra ID. This technology simplifies synchronization by orchestrating the deployment of Active Directory objects within Microsoft Entra ID in the Microsoft Cloud Services. For the on-premises infrastructure, only the installation of a lightweight agent is required, reducing complexity and enhancing efficiency.
