Identity Protection

Identity Protection Overview

Microsoft Entra ID Protection helps organizations detect, investigate, and remediate identity-based risks using insights from a vast array of signals collected daily. These risks, such as anonymous IP usage, password spray attacks, and leaked credentials, are assessed during sign-ins, generating a risk level that informs Conditional Access policies or integration with security tools like SIEMs.

Administrators can investigate risks through detailed reports on risky sign-ins and users, and remediation can be automated based on risk levels or handled manually through administrative review. Data from Identity Protection can be exported and integrated with other tools for extended analysis, archiving, and correlation, enhancing an organization's overall security posture.
