Entrust & Microsoft
Microsoft has led the innovation that has enabled the IT system of today – powerful, dynamic, and accessible from a range of devices and locations. And as mobile and cloud reshape the traditional security perimeter, identity has become critical in securing digital connections throughout the enterprise to guard against increasingly sophisticated threats and attacks.
Strategic Partnership with Microsoft
Bringing our portfolio of trusted identity solutions to Microsoft customers enables secure connections between people, systems, and devices to streamline IT deployment, mitigate risk, and reduce fraud. Together, we enable even higher levels of growth and innovation. Entrust is an official member of the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association.
Secure your Systems
Modern enterprises have seen an increase in mobile devices and cloud environments. Better flexibility and accessibility, yes, but both also introduce more risk. Together, Entrust and Microsoft have developed a suite of integrations that enforce trusted identity within transactions and between devices and systems.
Mobile Device Management
With Microsoft Intune, organizations can easily manage all of their mobile devices and applications, seamlessly enabling enterprise mobility. The integration of Entrust PKI and Intune enables these organizations to issue certificates via Entrust to provide seamless device authentication to applications and on-premises resources.
Modern Device Provisioning
Windows Autopilot automates the heavy lifting usually required to provision new devices. With the integration of Entrust PKI, you can enable secure access to corporate resources such as WiFi, VPN, and core applications during provisioning with the issuance of device certificates by Entrust through Microsoft Intune. The costs and time required to set up devices is greatly reduced, and your devices gain additional security based on trusted identity.
Secure your Users
The evolution of mobile and cloud have introduced a broad range of applications and endpoints - and magnified challenges in user identity management and authentication. Entrust and Microsoft have a suite of integrations for directory services, user authentication, and access control that allow you to easily leverage the best-in-class capabilities of both vendors.
Extend IDV Capabilities to Microsoft Entra Verified ID
Entrust and Microsoft protect the workforce by bridging world-class identity verification with a decentralized, privacy-first framework. By integrating Entrust’s AI-powered biometric and document verification with Microsoft Entra Verified ID, organizations can establish a high-assurance foundation to secure high-risk moments across the employee lifecycle.
User Management with Active Directory
The integration of Windows Server Active Directory (AD) and Azure Active Directory environments with Entrust Identity-as-a-service streamlines user identity management, enabling you to leverage existing user and attribute information for quick and effortless deployment.
Microsoft Application Authentication
Whether you’re seeking to add effortless, strong authentication to Windows login or streamline access to Microsoft cloud applications such as Office 365, Entrust Identity-as-a-service provides the most modern mobile and adaptive authentication to secure your business while creating a frictionless user experience. Integrations also extend to legacy applications with rich protocol support, including CAPI, ISAPI, ADFS, Radius, SAML, and OpenID connect.
Azure Active Directory Conditional Access
Microsoft now offers customers access management capabilities with Azure Active Directory Conditional Access. Entrust Identity-as-a-Service brings an additional layer of authentication to Azure Active Directory to meet the flexibility and varied needs of your users, from grid cards and hardware tokens to mobile push and the most secure certificate-based approaches with our mobile smart credential. Your applications, data, and organization will be protected with an authentication that’s easy to deploy and use.
PIV-Compliant Government mobility
Through participation in the Entrust Ready Technology Partner Program, Microsoft Intune integrated our certificate-based, mobile smart credential technology to provide secure, frictionless physical and logical access control to mobile users. This Derived PIV credential solution establishes secure remote access to U.S. Federal Government networks and applications via certificate-based authentication. Visit Microsoft’s blog to learn more.
