‘2124, 418 PM oro Trust for Ident integration overview | Mcrosof Learn Identity integrations Article + 10/20/2023 a Identity is the key control plane for managing access in the modern workplace and is essential to implementing Zero Trust. Identity solutions support Zero Trust through strong authentication and access policies, least privileged access with granular permission and access, and controls and policies that manage access to secure resources and minimize the blast radius of attacks. This integration guide explains how independent software vendors (ISVs) and technology partners can integrate with Microsoft Entra ID to create secure Zero Trust solutions for customers. Zero Trust for Identity integration guide This integration guide covers Microsoft Entra ID as well as Azure Active Directory B2C. Microsoft Entra ID is Microsoft's cloud-based identity and access management service. It provides single sign-on authentication, conditional access, passwordless and multi-factor authentication, automated user provisioning and many more features that enable enterprises to protect and automate identity processes at scale. Azure Active Directory B2C is a business-to-customer identity access management (CIAM) solution which customers use to implement secure white-label authentication solutions that scale easily and blend in with branded web and mobile application experiences. The integration guidance is available in the Azure Active Directory B2C section, Microsoft Entra ID There are many ways to integrate your solution with Microsoft Entra ID. Foundational integrations are about protecting your customers using Microsoft Entra ID's built-in security capabilities.

Enable single sign-on and publisher verification To enable single sign-on, we recommend publishing your app in the app gallery. This will increase customer trust, because they know that your application has been validated as compatible with Microsoft Entra ID, and you can become a verified publisher so that customers are certain you are the publisher of the app they are adding to their tenant Publishing in the app gallery will make it easy for IT admins to integrate the solution into their tenant with automated app registration. Manual registrations are a common cause of support issues with applications. Adding your app to the gallery will avoid these issues with your app. For mobile apps, we recommend you use the Microsoft Authentication Library and a system browser to implement single sign-on.

If your solution will be used by large organizations, consider synchronizing information about users and access between your application and Microsoft Entra ID. This helps keep user access consistent when changes occur. SCIM (System for Cross-Domain Identity Management) is an open standard for exchanging user identity information. You can use the SCIM user management API to automatically provision users and groups between your application and Microsoft Entra ID. Our tutorial on the subject, develop a SCIM endpoint for user provisioning to apps from Microsoft Entra ID, describes how to build a SCIM endpoint and integrate with the Microsoft Entra provisioning service Advanced integrations Advanced integrations will increase the security of your application even further. Conditional Access authentication context Conditional Access authentication context allows apps to trigger policy enforcement when ‘a user accesses sensitive data or actions, keeping users more productive and your sensitive resources secure. Continuous access evaluation Continuous access evaluation (CAE) allows access tokens to be revoked based on critical events and policy evaluation rather than relying on token expiry based on lifetime. For some resource APls, because risk and policy are evaluated in real time, this can increase token lifetime up to 28 hours, which will make your application more resilient and performant. Security APIs In our experience, many independent software vendors have found these APIs to be particularly useful. User and group APIs nttps:eam microsot.comlon-uslsecuryizro-ustiniegrateldentity 37122104, 418 PM ero Tas for Identity integration overiow | Microsoft Learn If your application needs to make updates to the users and groups in the tenant, you can use the user and group APIs through Microsoft Graph to write back to the Microsoft Entra tenant. You can read more about using the API in the Microsoft Graph REST API v1.0 reference and the reference documentation for the user resource type Conditional Access API Conditional access is a key part of Zero Trust because it helps to ensure the right user has the right access to the right resources. Enabling Conditional Access allows Microsoft Entra ID to make access decision based on computed risk and pre-configured policies. Independent software vendors can take advantage of conditional access by surfacing the option to apply conditional access policies when relevant. For example, if a user is especially risky, you can suggest the customer enable Conditional Access for that user through your Ul, and programmatically enable it in Microsoft Entra ID.

Secure hybrid access integrations Many business applications were created to work inside of a protected corporate network, and some of these applications make use of legacy authentication methods. As companies look to build a Zero Trust strategy and support hybrid and cloud-first work environments, they need solutions that connect apps to Microsoft Entra ID and provide modern authentication solutions for legacy applications. Use this guide to create solutions that provide modern cloud authentication for legacy on- premises applications. Become a Microsoft-compatible FIDO2 security key vendor FIDO2 security keys can replace weak credentials with strong hardware-backed public/private-key credentials which cannot be reused, replayed, or shared across services. You can become a Microsoft-compatible FIDO2 security key vendor by following the process in this document. Azure Active Directory B2C ‘Azure Active Directory B2C is a customer identity and access management (CIAM) solution capable of supporting millions of users and billions of authentications per day. It is a white- label authentication solution that enables user experiences which blend with branded web and mobile applications. As with Microsoft Entra ID, partners can integrate with Azure Active Directory B2C by using Microsoft Graph and key security APIs such as the Conditional Access, confirm compromise, and risky user APIs. You can read more about those integrations in the Microsoft Entra ID section above. This section includes several other integration opportunities independent software vendor partners can support.
