Microsoft made an announcement regarding the availability of its new service, Microsoft Entra ID Governance. This cost-effective solution aims to enhance employee productivity and assist organizations in fulfilling compliance and regulatory obligations. “ID Governance extends the market-leading identity and access management platform in Azure Active Directory. It’s easy to deploy, and includes capabilities for meeting compliance requirements with ML powered access review recommendations, a no-code/low-code approach for extensibility, workflows for automating identity lifecycle management tasks, and access provisioning for SaaS and on-premises applications,” Microsoft explained. With Microsoft Entra ID Governance, customers can govern the identity/access lifecycle as well as secure privileged access across apps and services in on-premises cloud environments. They can use Microsoft Entra access reviews to control group membership and application access. The Microsoft Entra entitlement management feature also lets IT Pros automate access assignments, reviews, access request workflows, and expiration. They can use a time and approval-based role activation mechanism to block excessive access to sensitive resources. Also, read more at Microsoft Entra identity governance
