Identity & access
Microsoft Entra ID & identity
North Peak Cloud gets your Microsoft Entra ID identity right, because identity is the front door to everything in Azure and Microsoft 365. We design and harden single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, Conditional Access and identity governance so the right people get the right access and no one else does. Most breaches start with identity — we make sure yours is the strong part of your estate, not the weak one.
- Single sign-on and app integration
- Conditional Access and MFA policy design
- Privileged Identity Management (PIM)
- Identity governance and access reviews
- B2B and external-collaboration security

Asked and answered.
What is Microsoft Entra ID?+
Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) is Microsoft's cloud identity and access management service — it authenticates users and controls access to Azure, Microsoft 365 and thousands of other apps through single sign-on, MFA and Conditional Access.
How do I secure identity in Azure?+
Enforce MFA everywhere, use Conditional Access to gate risky sign-ins, apply least-privilege with role-based access and Privileged Identity Management, and review access regularly. North Peak Cloud designs and implements this so identity is a strength, not your biggest risk.
