Microsoft unveiled Tuesday the Microsoft Entra identity and access product family. Entra Permissions Management leverages the CIEM tool Microsoft acquired from CloudKnox. Verified ID will be available on a stand-alone basis in July and will debut in August. Decentralized identity makes it possible to verify aspects of a user’s digital identity such as passport, driver’s license, employment status, and education and certification credentials without having to store the data in a centralized repository. “Identity is the new battleground,” Joy Chik, corporate vice president of Microsoft Identity, says.”]
