What is Azure managed identity?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 12:40 pm

Azure managed identity (AMI) is a suite of cloud-based identity management services that enable users and organizations to securely access and manage their identities from any device. With Azure AMI, you can easily create and manage identities for your employees, partners, and customers, and quickly access the identities you need to securely interact with cloud-based services.

Azure AMI also provides granular access control and auditing capabilities to help you manage your identities securely.

Azure AMI is a modular platform that can be tailored to meet the needs of your organization. You can choose to use Azure Active Directory (AD) to manage identities and access Azure services, or you can use a different identity management solution, such as Microsoft Account, to manage identities and access Azure services.

PRO TIP: Azure managed identity is an Azure service that allows you to securely access Azure resources. However, you should be aware that there have been reports of vulnerabilities in Azure managed identity that could allow attackers to gain access to your Azure account and resources.

Azure AMI integrates with a number of Identity Management Solutions (IMS) such as AD, Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), and Azure Active Directory Connect.

Azure AMI is a managed service that is continuously updated and enhanced to provide the best possible experience for users. Azure AMI supports a wide range of devices, including Windows, macOS, and UNIX-based systems.

You can also use Azure AMI to access Azure services on devices that do not have an installed Azure OS or Microsoft Windows.

Azure AMI is a cost-effective solution that can help you manage your identities and access cloud-based services securely. You can use Azure AMI to quickly create and manage identities for your employees, partners, and customers, and access the identities you need to securely interact with cloud-based services.
