Enterprises in need of a solution to automate the detection and remediation of identity-based risks
About Microsoft Entra Identity Protection
Identity Protection uses the learnings Microsoft has acquired from their position in organizations with Microsoft Entra ID, the consumer space with Microsoft Accounts, and in gaming with Xbox to protect your users. Microsoft analyses trillions of signals per day to identify and protect customers from threats. The signals generated by and fed to identity protection can be further fed into tools like conditional access to make access decisions, or fed back to a security information and event management (SIEM) tool for further investigation. The risk signals can trigger remediation efforts such as requiring to perform multifactor authentication, reset their password using self-service password reset, or block access until an administrator takes action. Identity Protection allows organizations to accomplish three key tasks. Automate the detection and remediation of identity-based risks. Investigate risks using data in the portal. Export risk detection data to other tools.
