Authentication with Microsoft Azure AD Services
We are making the migrating Microsoft Azure AD Identity Services (along with a host of other Azure services: SSPR, biometric sign-in, MFA, one-drive, and more, oh my!). It would be beneficial to all teachers, staff, and administrators to have an AZURE AD option enabled to allow quick seamless sign-in to Aeries portals. The google integration works great, but we are moving away from google.
THE WHY - The feature would enable a smoother sign in process for end users and promotes a more secure environment for district technology departments.
NOTE: I am not saying Aeries SIS is not secure, only requested another method for district technology teams to build secure solutions.

We are actively exploring an authentication solution that will support this request. As soon as this item has officially moved to the development phase, we will update the idea accordingly so you are aware of the anticipated quarter of release.

This idea needs to be implemented, especially in light of the recent PowerSchool cyber incident. In an era when cybercriminals are increasingly targeting school data, Aeries must be committed to helping school districts secure student and staff data. The importance of streamlined access and robust security cannot be overstated.
