Empower your workforce while ensuring secure access

This diagram shows how to consolidate and secure access to all apps, whether they’re on premises or in the cloud, with Azure AD. Azure AD can be synchronized with on-premises Active Directory, connected to cloud HR systems such as SAP SuccessFactors and Workday, and enabled for external users.
Once users are connected to Azure AD, you can enable secure access and single sign-on to all apps including SaaS apps, custom-built cloud apps, and on-premises apps.
For on-premises apps, you can use Azure AD Application Proxy or an app delivery controller and networking solution such as Akamai, Citrix, F5, or Zscaler.
