Post-it notes aren't the place for passwords
A password is the key into your data, so making sure they are strong is important in securing your applications and networks to enable a more productive and secure workplace.
The way in which people work is changing and technology is advancing at an unprecedented rate. Internal threats, external threats, compliance, data protection, new ways of remote working, BYOD, fiduciary duties and technology transformation are only some of the reasons to take cyber security and access requirements seriously.
Identity and access management is at the heart of what Content+Cloud do. We firmly believe that a secure, identity-driven environment should underpin any technology implementation to ensure that your sensitive information is protected, while enabling your workforce to work smarter.
We offer a range of Identity and Access Management security solutions designed specifically to provide your organisation with the control you require to secure your applications and networks, to enable a more productive and secure workplace.
Protecting your critical data in the Cloud.
Employees roles and duties can change.
With the growth in the number of SaaS applications being utilised across enterprise organisation’s adoption of critical business application can suffer. With this in mind it, can be difficult to manage digital identities of your workforce. Privileges can be granted, but sometimes they will need to be revoked, to protect sensitive information with Azure AD.
Initiate, capture, manage and record digital identities.
A lack of effective Identity and Access management can pose a significant threat risk – not only to compliance, but your organisation’s overall security. The mismanagement of digital identities, significantly increases the risk of damage to both internal, and external threats to your sensitive corporate information.
A tiered approach to Identity and Access management.
With a tiered approach to Identity and Access Management (IAM) for wherever your organisation is on its journey, Content+Cloud will help you understand Identity and Access management in the context of your organisation.
Identity integration.
Integrating on-premises Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) users with Azure AD to establish Same or Single Sign-On (SSO) is typically a prerequisite to Office 365 usage. Within the Office 365 Identity Integration we’ll work with you to establish the routes taken to achieving a Synchronised Identity model for Office 365: Password Hash Sync (PHS) and Pass-through Authentication.
We can support you with:
- Identity and Access Management disciplines and the Microsoft Cloud
- Office 365 Identity Model selection
- Active Directory Domain Services
- Identity Synchronisation with Azure AD Connect
- Sign-on at Azure AD and Office 365
- Active Directory Federation Services
Azure AD Premium.
Azure Active Directory Premium (AAD-P) helps you build upon synchronisation and sign-on designs from your Identity Integration strategy to enhance security provisions with stronger authentication, new approaches to authorisation, perimeter services and insights.
We can work with you to introduce Azure AD technologies, align these technologies to your business problems, clarify priorities and sets out a roadmap to support deeper design and implementation work.
DFS and WAP hardening.
AD FS enables your organisation to create a stable hardening profile for Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) and Web Application Proxy (WAP). By reducing the attack surface of these servers by up to sixty services, we can work with you to offer guidance on disabling legacy authentication protocols and related best practices.
How we help:
- Review non-default applications and services on standard builds
- Review typical uses of Windows services
- Identify opportunities to restrict legacy authentication protocols
- Reach agreements on service configuration where the effects of disabling the service may be unknown
- Provide tooling that can be directly used to harden servers
