Identity and Access Management, Identity Governance

Account in Active Directory (AD) and account in Azure AD (AAD) Here AD is being referred to as the on-premise AD and  Azure AD (AAD) is the cloud based Active Directory. Here are two scenarios of user accounts.   The AAD user accounts are called as M365 accounts that are required to access MS services in the cloud, like M365 tenants, Exchange online mailboxes etc. Scenario: You only have Azure AD account, and an Exchange online mailbox. In this scenario how are the credentials synced. There is no syncing. Azure AD account acts as the single identity source for accessing both Azure AD and Exchange Online. The Azure AD account is the authoritative source for your identity and credentials. When you are assigned an Exchange Online mailbox, it is linked to your existing Azure AD account. Your Azure AD credentials (username, password) are used to authenticate and access both  Azure AD and your Exchange Online mailbox. There is no synchronization of credentials happening because the Azure AD

  A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO QUANTUM-RESISTANT CRYPTOGRAPHY AND ENCRYPTION While still in their early stages of development, quantum computers are set to change the world — and that includes the ability to break the cryptography and encryption we use today. Quantum computers are approaching the computing power and stability needed to  break public-key encryption protocols . The time to migrate to post-quantum cryptography is now. What is a Quantum Computer? Quantum computers  apply the properties of quantum mechanics to processing power. This allows them to perform highly complex computations significantly faster than classical computers. Before you can understand quantum computing, you must first wrap your mind around the “qubit.” In traditional computing, the basic unit of memory is a “bit,” which represents either a one or zero. On the other hand, a qubit can represent one, zero, or even a combination of them both at the same time — a phenomenon referred to as “superposition.” When cl
