Topic: Webinar on Hybrid Active Directory and Azure Active Directory

Time: 15th of April 2020

Host: Sami Laiho & Kimmo Bergius

Active Directory has been around for 20 years, since the time of Windows 2000, and organizations have utilized Active Directory for both as their primary location for user identities and for management for identities and workstations. Azure Active Directory is a much later technology, and many organizations use AAD for cloud identities.

This webinar will cover both directories and gives an answer on how to utilize them together and how to utilize them securely. The webinar is divided into two parts, the first part will focus on Active Directory and security in AD. The second part will focus on Azure Active Directory, creating a hybrid between AD and Azure AD, and security within the Azure AD environment.
