Azure AD Integration for Intranet Access

Simplify Secure Access

With Azure AD (now Microsoft Entra ID) integration, employees can log into your intranet using their existing Microsoft 365 credentials. There's no need to manage separate usernames and passwords - access is secure, unified, and based on your existing organizational structure.

Why Banks & Credit Unions Prefer It

  • Simplified Login: One username and password across Microsoft 365 and the intranet
  • Group-Based Permissions: Control access to intranet sections using Entra groups
  • Automatic Deactivation: Remove intranet access when a Microsoft 365 account is disabled
  • SSO & MFA Support: Works with your current Single Sign-On and Multi-Factor Authentication policies

How It Works

We guide you through a simple Microsoft Entra App registration. Once complete, login happens securely via OAuth2. Users are authenticated by Microsoft, and group membership determines what they can see or do inside the intranet.

Common Use Cases

  • Automatically give HR staff access to onboarding tools
  • Limit IT admin tools to your internal network group
  • Assign read-only access to certain staff by department

Common Questions

How does SimplifyIT integrate with Azure Active Directory?
SimplifyIT connects directly to Azure AD (now Microsoft Entra ID) using secure OAuth2 authentication. Users log in with their Microsoft 365 credentials, and group membership determines their intranet access levels.
Is Entra ID the same as Azure AD?
Yes. Microsoft rebranded Azure Active Directory as Microsoft Entra ID in 2023. All existing integrations, including SimplifyIT's intranet login, continue to work seamlessly under the new name.
Can I control intranet access by department or job role?
Absolutely. You can use Entra ID groups to assign access based on department, branch, or job title - ensuring each employee sees only the content they need.
