Windows 10: New Azure Active Directory features available September 15th 2016

Brink · Sep 7, 2016

Howdy folks,

Today we’ve got some cool news! Azure AD Identity Protection, Azure AD Privileged Identity Management and Azure AD Premium P2 are going to be Generally Available next Thursday 9/15! I’m incredibly excited about the work the teams are doing here. I hope you will be as well.

Azure AD Identity Protection is a one of a kind cloud security service. It uses state of the art machine learning to analyze 10TB of behavioral and contextual data every day to detect and prevent attempts to attack your organizations Azure AD accounts. This level of account protection is pretty unprecedented – you can’t find it in the cloud or on-premises.

Azure AD Privileged Identity Management is another first – the world’s first cloud based privileged identity management solution. With just a few clicks, you can dramatically increase the security of your Azure AD administrator accounts and improve your administrative compliance and auditing.

Azure AD Premium P2 is a new SKU of Azure AD which includes all the capabilities in Azure AD Premium P1 as well as the new Identity Protection and Privileged Identity Management. It’s an incredible value and over the next 12 months will continue to get richer and richer as we add additional security and governance capabilities.

To give you a detailed tour of both of these capabilities, I’ve asked Alex Weinert the Program Manager who leads our Identity Security and Protection team and Joseph Dadzie the Program Manager who leads our Identity Governance and Administration team to write up guest blog posts. You’ll fined them both below.

I hope you’ll find these new capabilities valuable in securing your enterprises use of the cloud.

And as always, we’d love to receive any feedback or suggestions you have.

Best regards,

Windows 10 Microsoft Account Sync not working

If you've used azure AD join, the sync settings won't work on a personal account. I've been wrestling with this for a while, finally found what sounds like the answer in an Azure AD FAQ:

The primary account is defined as the account used to sign in to Windows. This can be a Microsoft account, an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) account, an on-premises Active Directory account, or a local account. In addition to the primary account, Windows
10 users can add one or more secondary cloud accounts to their device. A secondary account is generally a Microsoft account, an Azure AD account, or some other account such as Gmail or Facebook. These secondary accounts provide access to additional services
such as single sign-on and the Windows Store, but they are not capable of powering settings sync.+

In Windows 10, only the primary account for the device can be used for settings sync
(see
How do I upgrade from Microsoft account settings sync in Windows 8 to Azure AD settings sync in Windows 10?).
