Cisco Security and Microsoft Entra ID

How Microsoft Entra ID and Cisco Security work together

Microsoft Entra ID (formerly known as Microsoft Azure Active Directory or Azure AD) is a cloud-based identity and access management (IAM) solution. It is a directory and identity management service that operates in the cloud and offers authentication and authorization services to various Microsoft services, such as Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, Microsoft Azure and third-party services. Entra ID provides users with single sign-on experience, regardless of whether their applications are cloud-based or on-premises.

This information is then used to enrich investigations and enhance incident triage with user context. A target will also become available in XDR automation for automated workflows.

Cisco XDR Investigate: This integration will enhance investigations with user information from Entra ID.

Cisco XDR Assets: This integration can also be used to provide user information, for use in triaging incidents and detections.
