How UNIFYConnect Enhances Microsoft Entra ID Integration

Our focus is on improving security posture and enabling Zero Trust using Identity and Access Management as a foundation.

Microsoft Entra App Provisioning

App provisioning in Microsoft Entra ID is powered by SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management), a widely adopted standard.

However, many business-critical applications lack SCIM support, especially on-premises solutions.

With UNIFYConnect, applications can integrate with Microsoft Entra ID’s SCIM interface, enabling provisioning without additional infrastructure.
