This activity is the central focus of this workshop, and everything is articulated around it. Discuss all other topics with this in mind and articulate by example the Identity Fundamentals discussing with AD FS migration in mind in order to be able to achieve this goal.
This activity is divided up into the following two parts:
Azure AD Application Management Overview
Explain how Azure AD Application Management can help the customer simplify how they manage their applications by providing a single identity system for their cloud and on-premises applications.
Azure AD Application Management Application Classification and Prioritization Then, work together with the customer to discuss their current application management strategy and how Azure AD can help them create a more secure and simplified strategy. Finally, help the customer start classifying and prioritizing their applications using the results from the Application Discovery activity as input.
Objectives
The objectives for this activity are to present an overview of Azure AD Application Management and complete the classification and prioritization of the applications discovered as part of this engagement, particularly the following:
Deliver the 09 - Secure Identities and Access - Azure AD Application Management.pptx presentation.
Classify and prioritize applications as part of the 98 - Secure Identities and Access - Design Decision Points.xlsx spreadsheet.
Update the Azure AD Application management deployment plan slides within the 10 - Secure Identities and Access - Key results, Recommendations and Next Steps.pptx presentation, adding selected high priority applications that can be migrated to Azure AD.
Define and agree with the customer on next steps in terms of follow-up activities and/or engagements and document these as part of the next steps in the 10 - Secure Identities and Access - Key results, Recommendations and Next Steps.pptx presentation.
