- Pass-through authentication with Azure Active Directory, available today in preview, enables secure single sign-on to cloud resources without requiring syncing of passwords to the cloud, or modification to existing on-premises network infrastructure.
- Microsoft Intune’s new Admin Console in Azure, rolling out in preview, makes setting up integrated security and management scenarios across EMS services even easier.
- Azure Information Protection updates that provide even greater flexibility and security for protecting data at the file level. These updates include support for more file types, integration with your on-premises encryption key network, and new options for creating classification and protection policies.
The additions to EMS further prove Microsoft’s drive to empower all users, including those who use non-Microsoft-crafted mobile devices, to do more. Conway also closes his announcement on the note that Microsoft’s EMS tool is gaining wider customer appeal as both Avanade, a digital and cloud service provider and Whole Foods have recently deployed the service.
