Decentralized Identity has begun the journey of becoming the Digital Identity of the future and is set to radically change Identity & Access Management in industry and government settings.

Entra Verified ID offers an unparalleled set of SME and enterprise features embedding Decentralized Identity in existing Azure services like Microsoft 365, Azure Active Directory and others. As a Zero Trust champion and a close partner of Microsoft, Avanade has embraced Microsoft Entra Verified ID and is now offering the full range of consultancy services around it.

Decentralized Identity defines how a physical piece of identity (like a passport or employee access card) could be converted to a digital Verifiable Credential (VC) and stored in a person’s mobile phone.

Microsoft Entra Verified ID is a Decentralized Identity implementation that integrates with Azure services. Typical use cases transform the daily identity activities from a simple log-on to onboarding a new employee. Entra Verified ID can streamline any identity related process, simplify it, reduce costs and increase convenience.
