Removing Identity Barriers for Office 365

On-Demand Webinar

Microsoft touts the many productivity, cost, and security benefits of Office 365, but reaping those benefits requires a significant amount of planning and work on your part. Identity management— including directory synchronization and federation— is one of the most critical parts of planning your Office 365 deployment. Whether you choose to use cloud-based identities to start or want full federation with on-premises Active Directory, knowing your options and the capabilities of Microsoft’s identity management tools is important to your success.

In this webinar, Microsoft MVP Paul Robichaux will discuss the basics of Office 365’s requirements for identity management, explore how Office 365 integrates with on-premises directory services, and highlight a few surprises (both pleasant and unpleasant!) that may await you as part of your IdM deployment for Office 365. Hear about alternatives you have, including using Okta identity and mobility management to quickly, easily and securely integrate Office 365 with AD.
