Workshops

Duration: 2 weeks

This workshop helps customers looking to enhance their cloud security posture by reviewing the existing environment and applying best practices to Azure Conditional Access Policies.

Conditional Access policies at their simplest are if-then statements – if a user wants to access a resource, then they must complete an action. Example: A payroll manager wants to access the payroll application and is required to perform multi-factor authentication to access it.

Administrators are faced with two primary goals:
• Empower users to be productive wherever and whenever
• Protect the organization’s assets

Duration: 4 weeks

This workshop and Proof-of-Concept helps customers looking to centralize their authentication (identity & security) and provide cost savings from existing Okta deployments.

Identity and Authentication POCs help to begin the process of migrating applications off Okta and move to Azure integration.  The initial POC and focus of this engagement will be the Office365/Azure authentication replacement and one (1) 3^rd Party SAML integrated application.

Administrators should look forward to these primary goals:

• Setup Pass-Through Authentication (PTA) Staged Rollout POC
• Setup PTA agents on-premise on two (2) member servers
• Setup Azure pilot user group to leverage PTA migration on the existing federated domain. Initial POC to include up-to 30 users
• Setup one (1) SAML integration 3^rd party application migration from Okta to Azure for 10-30 users
• Review of current state of federation, Azure applications, and end user authentication flow experience.
• Review AADConnect and features deployed

Duration: 4 weeks

Provide Active Directory Federation Service (ADFS) decommissioning planning and implementation support, including up-to 5 applications. Enablement of staged rollout of Pass-through Authentication (PTA) to allow for direct Azure authentication and application testing. Focus for ADFS relying party changes will be on Office365 connectivity.

Workshop style sessions to provide solution overview and training, identify key application dependencies, communication to end-users, testing, and deployment considerations.

Twice weekly technical touchpoints with key stakeholders, and weekly project dashboard meetings to track progress, blockers, and planned activities.

Duration: 2 weeks

This workshop is for customer engagement and planning activities that include understanding customer’s Information Protection strategy, providing workshop style sessions on Microsoft Information Protection and Azure Identity (including Identity Protection, Azure Information Protection, Conditional Access, Multi-factor Authentication (MFA), Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR), Microsoft Identity Manager integration, and Microsoft Cloud Application Security).

Based on the workshop style sessions, create a small production Proof of Concept (POC) group for leveraging some of these key technologies, specifically focused on Microsoft Information Protection (including on-prem scanning), Azure Advanced Threat Protection, and Microsoft Cloud Application Security (MCAS) integrations with file policies, activity policies, and Azure ATP

Duration: 2 weeks

ActiveIdM will perform requirement, scope, and high-level design workshop meetings in support of the clients’ Identity Management project initiatives.  The goal of the workshop is to capture general user lifecycle requirements, review existing identity management tools deployed, and create recommendation documents for a Microsoft Identity Manager (MIM) architecture and design.  This may include capitalizing on existing Identity software for interim migrations and/or long-term coexistence.

The documentation will focus on the requirements, Sprint 1 implementation, an identity roadmap, and review the timing of Identity Management initiatives with the current IT projects.

Duration: 4 weeks

This workshop focuses on engagement and planning activities that include understanding customer’s Information Protection strategy and providing workshop style sessions on Microsoft Information Protection and Azure Identity (including Azure Information Protection, and Microsoft Cloud Application Security (MCAS) integration).

Based on the workshop style sessions, create a production Proof of Concept (POC) utilizing key technologies specifically focused on Azure Information Protection deployment, leveraging the Unified Labeling Client.

Duration: 3 weeks

This workshop provides engagement and planning activities that include understanding customer’s Mobile Device Management (MDM) strategy, providing workshop style sessions on Microsoft Intune (while addressing any existing MDM solutions deployed), Conditional Access, and Multi-factor Authentication (MFA).

Based on the workshop style sessions, create a production Proof of Concept (POC) leveraging key technologies, specifically focused on Intune for IOS, Android, Windows 10, and MAC.

Providing client with an overall MDM strategy leveraging the Microsoft platform will be instrumental in helping them realize the value of the M365 platform.

Duration: 2 weeks

This workshop provides engagement and planning activities that include understanding customer’s Identity Protection strategy, providing workshop style sessions on Azure Identity (including Identity Protection, Conditional Access, Multi-factor Authentication (MFA), Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR), Microsoft Identity Manager integration, and Microsoft Cloud Application Security).

Based on the workshop style sessions, create a production Proof of Concept (POC) for leveraging key technologies, specifically focused on Azure Self Service Password Reset (SSPR) and Multi-factor Authentication (MFA).

Providing client with an overall identity protection strategy leveraging the Microsoft platform for Information Lifecycle Management will be instrumental in helping them realize the value of Azure AD as part of their identity and information protection planning.
