Microsoft Entra ID is now the primary identity layer for over 600 million users across cloud and hybrid environments worldwide. As organizations consolidate identity management around Microsoft Entra ID, it has become one of the most targeted attack surfaces in the enterprise. Identity-based attacks surged 32% globally in the first half of 2025 alone according to the Microsoft Digital Defense Report. The same report found that more than 97% of the attacks targeted credentials through password spray and brute force. For IT and security teams, securing every identity operation within Microsoft Entra ID—from how passwords are reset and changed, to how users authenticate and access applications—is no longer optional. It is the foundation of enterprise security.
Where native Microsoft Entra ID falls short
Microsoft Entra ID provides a strong identity foundation, but if your infrastructure is complex or your security requirements are strict, you'll run into limitations that native controls cannot address.
One reset policy for the entire tenant
SSPR can only be enabled for a single group in the Entra admin center—no differentiation by role, department, or privilege level.
MFA that doesn't follow your workforce
Windows Hello for Business replaces passwords rather than enforcing adding additional factors at the Windows login screen, RDP access, and UAC prompts.
Passwords that slip through and stay out of sync
A single global policy with no breach screening or pattern detection lets weak credentials through, and native writeback only reaches on-premises AD, leaving every other connected app with a stale password.
What ADSelfService Plus adds to Microsoft Entra ID
ADSelfService Plus improves Microsoft Entra ID security across six core identity operations, each one addressing a specific gap in what native controls can enforce.
Microsoft Entra ID self-service password reset
Reset from the Windows login screen, mobile app, or any browser—no VPN or help desk required. Deploy per-group and per-domain SSPR policies across the entire tenant, with phishing-resistant MFA including FIDO2 passkeys, biometrics, and YubiKey enforced before every reset via the Microsoft Graph API.
Trigger a genuinely independent MFA challenge at every Entra-joined and hybrid-joined Windows machine login, plus RDP and UAC prompts. Use up to three factors and 17 supported authenticators, with conditional access policies that adapt to time, location, device, and IP.
Get one login for every enterprise application. SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, and OpenID Connect run across 100+ built-in integrations and custom apps—with MFA and conditional access at every entry point and just-in-time provisioning to automate account creation on access.
Microsoft Entra ID Password Policy Enforcer
Enforce fine-grained, per-group password policies that go far beyond native controls. Use breach database screening via Have I Been Pwned, dictionary filters, regex pattern blocking, palindrome and keyboard walk detection, and real-time strength feedback—all configurable independently per Entra group or domain.
Microsoft Entra ID password sync
Sync one password change propagated in real time to on-premises AD, Google Workspace, Salesforce, ServiceNow, SAP, and more—no Entra Connect dependency, no P1/P2 license required. Users can also choose which connected apps receive the updated credential.
Microsoft Entra ID web-based password change
Get a secure, MFA-backed password change portal accessible from any browser or mobile app, without VPN. Advanced password policies enforced at the point of change, with hybrid writeback through ADSelfService Plus' own sync agent, independent of Entra Connect.
"We've cut over 500 tickets a month. The ROI is great, and the custom MFA setup works flawlessly."

Why ADSelfService Plus for Microsoft Entra ID identities
ADSelfService Plus enforces a genuinely independent second-factor challenge at every Microsoft Entra ID access point, not just the browser-based sign-in that native Microsoft Entra ID MFA covers.
Built for hybrid, not just cloud
Most native Microsoft Entra ID capabilities are designed for cloud-first environments. ADSelfService Plus manages identities and passwords across Microsoft Entra ID and on-premises Active Directory from a single platform—without Entra Connect dependencies or premium licensing requirements for core functionality.
Genuine MFA at every access point
Native Windows login options replace passwords rather than adding to them. ADSelfService Plus enforces a separate, independent authentication challenge at online and offline Windows logins, RDP access, and UAC prompts so every access point is genuinely verified, not just authenticated.
Granular control down to the Entra domain and group level
Native Microsoft Entra ID applies password policies and SSPR rules tenant-wide. ADSelfService Plus lets you configure separate MFA requirements, password policies, and reset rules for different Entra groups and domains within the same tenant that are aligned to actual access sensitivity and risk level.
Phishing-resistant across every operation
SMS and email OTPs remain vulnerable to interception and SIM-swapping. ADSelfService Plus supports FIDO2 passkeys, biometrics, and YubiKey hardware tokens across every operation—reset, change, login, and sync—so phishing resistance isn't limited to one workflow.
ADSelfService Plus gives you the controls that native Microsoft Entra ID doesn't: per-group and per-domain SSPR policies, MFA deployed at the Windows login screen, granular password policy enforcement with breach database screening, and real-time password synchronization beyond AD.
