Are you struggling with Identity and Access Management (IAM) challenges? In a recent webinar, Josh Gural, discussed the methods and options to get your IAM to the cloud and shows you how leveraging Azure Active Directory and IAM management in the cloud will help deliver your services to your users.

This webinar focuses on what IAM is in Azure and how to utilize Azure Active Directory (AAD).
