Disable Entra Connect Seamless SSO – Step-by-Step Guide
Seamless Single Sign-On (Seamless SSO) is an optional feature in Microsoft Entra Connect that enables domain-joined Windows devices on the internal network to automatically sign in to Microsoft Entra ID without requiring users to re-enter their credentials. Seamless SSO extends Active Directory by providing a single sign-on mechanism for cloud services such as Microsoft 365 and connected SaaS applications. During configuration, Active Directory uses the Kerberos authentication protocol and creates a dedicated computer account named AZUREADSSOACC in the on-premises directory. This account links the local identity to Entra ID and is used exclusively for seamless SSO operations.
Microsoft Defender for Endpoint: Getting Started with Deployment Using Intune
Devices today are diverse, mobile and therefore exposed to a wide range of threats. Traditional antivirus solutions detect known patterns but leave gaps when facing new techniques and stealthy attacks. What is needed is a solution that provides visibility into activities, detects attacks early and enables centralized and largely automated response. One such approach is to deploy Microsoft Defender for Endpoint with Intune. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) provides this coverage: the Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) sensor collects device signals, Threat and Vulnerability Management (TVM) identifies vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) rules minimize the attack surface, Web and Network Protection block risky connections and Automated Investigation and…
Microsoft Entra Connect: Migration to Application Based Authentication (ABA)
With the introduction of Application Based Authentication (ABA), Microsoft introduces modern authentication mechanisms to Microsoft Entra Connect. Previously, the synchronization service used a service account with a locally stored password to sign in to Microsoft Entra ID, an approach considered outdated and potentially vulnerable from a security perspective.
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.
Microsoft Defender for Identity: Getting Started
Microsoft Defender for Identity (MDI) secures the on-premises Active Directory (AD) against identity threats as a cloud-based security solution. By thoroughly analyzing user activities and detecting complex attack vectors, Microsoft Defender for Identity (MDI) ensures comprehensive protection against identity compromises.
