Microsoft Entra ID & Conditional Access
Design an Entra ID tenant and policy system that administrators can explain, test, change, and support.
What CogniAccess does
CogniAccess reviews tenant configuration, authentication methods, administrative roles, application assignments, named locations, device signals, and sign-in behavior. Conditional Access is organized into named policy sets with a clear purpose, population, control, exception path, and owner.
Work includes Entra Connect and hybrid identity support, application SSO, tenant hardening, report-only testing, pilot groups, staged enforcement, and monitoring during each wave. Tenant and directory hardening is checked against DISA STIG and CIS Benchmark configuration guidance where those baselines apply, with deviations documented rather than left implicit. Emergency access accounts are designed, protected, tested, and documented rather than treated as an afterthought.
