Microsoft Entra ID Single Sign-On 2wk Pilot Implementation

Oxford Computer Group LLC

This 2-week pilot implementation is designed to help customers understand and test Microsoft Entra ID Single Sign-On (SSO) by configuring SSO for 5 applications.

This Microsoft Entra ID SSO Pilot implementation will be beneficial for companies looking to leverage their Microsoft licenses more fully. This Pilot can also be used to demonstrate like-for-like replacement of the SSO capabilities of third-party identity solutions, which can help organizations decrease license costs and accelerate cloud application integrations.

Process: The Microsoft Entra ID SSO Pilot will demonstrate the functionality of Microsoft Entra ID and can be conducted in a “sandbox” test environment or production tenant. The customer will select up to 5 applications from the Azure Gallery that will be used during the Pilot. The selected applications can also be configured in a “sandbox” environment. Applications that support multiple identity providers can be in production.
