Planning for Hybrid Identity

This book aims to act as a general administration guide for security, compliance, identity, management, and privacy administrators of Microsoft 365 environments, whether they are cloud-only or hybrid. You will learn about umbrella terms for technology principles, such as Microsoft Defender, Microsoft Purview, and Microsoft Entra, and understand their purpose and how they relate to each other. You will see how to access, plan, and configure these technologies via administrative portals, as well as by using PowerShell. In this first chapter, we begin by focusing on identity.

Configuring a Microsoft 365 hybrid environment requires an understanding of your organization’s identity needs. This will enable you to plan and deploy the correct Azure Active Directory (AD) authentication and synchronization method within your environment. This chapter discusses how you can plan your identity methodology and describes the process of monitoring and understanding the events recorded by Azure AD Connect.

By the end of this chapter, you will be able to determine your business needs, analyze on-premises identity infrastructure, and develop a plan for hybrid identity. You will understand how to design and implement authentication and application management solutions, how to enhance data security through strong identity, and how to analyze events and configure alerts in Azure AD Connect.

This chapter covers the following topics:
