Today’s (Cloud) Tip…

Did you know that Windows Azure AD includes the ability to simplify access to more than 400 hundred other cloud services? Application Access consists of the following:

  • A gallery of pre-integrated SaaS apps including top apps like Office 365, Box.com, Salesforce.com, Concur, DropBox & Gmail (plus 500 more).
  • Easy SSO configuration using SAML federation or secure password management.
  • User provisioning integration with top SaaS apps like Box, Salesforce.com and Gmail.
  • Simple security reports reporting user logins and suspicious logins.
  • A browser based end-user access panel which makes it easy for employees to find the SaaS apps you're organization provides them and to Single Sign On (SSO) to those applications.
