Bring structure and control to your Entra ID applications

Transparency and control across your application landscape

Microsoft Cloud Services: Entra ID App Management

In many organizations, the number of Entra ID applications keeps growing. New applications are created, permissions are assigned, and credentials are exchanged. At the same time, teams often lack transparency into which applications are actually being used, who is responsible for them, and whether security requirements are being met.

The Entra ID App Management Microsoft Cloud Service helps you manage your application landscape in a structured, secure, transparent, and auditable way across the entire lifecycle.

The challenge

As the number of applications increases, so does the effort required to keep governance, security, and operational processes consistent. What starts as a manageable environment can quickly become a complex landscape of different applications, teams, and requirements.

Typical questions include:

  • protect icon

    Maintain governance

    How can standards and processes be applied consistently across all applications?

  • single sign on icon

    Meet security requirements

    How can credentials, permissions, and trust relationships be managed securely?

  • hips icon

    Control application lifecycles

    How can changes, updates, and decommissioning remain traceable and controlled?

The solution: Entra ID App Management by SoftwareOne. Choose the approach that fits your needs.

When managing Entra ID applications, organizations typically face a choice: build their own solution or rely on a proven managed service.

A custom-built solution can offer maximum flexibility, but it also requires significant effort. Design, implementation, and operations remain fully with your organization, often resulting in longer project timelines, higher costs, and greater complexity.

Why build from scratch when a proven solution already exists?

With Entra ID App Management, you reduce effort, risk, and complexity while accelerating implementation through clearly defined processes.

The complete lifecycle for your applications

All applications are managed through a clearly defined process, from creation through decommissioning:

  • Level 0

    Documentation

    • Complete overview of app registrations and service principals
    • Centralized analysis of relevant Entra ID metadata
    • Analytics and reporting portal for maximum transparency

  • Level 1

    Enrichment

    • Add business-relevant information
    • Assign clear ownership and points of contact
    • Automated notifications for expiring certificates and secrets

  • Level 2

    Control

    • Secure credential provisioning through Azure Key Vault
    • Controlled access to credentials based on defined permissions
    • Automated renewal of certificates and secrets to reduce risk

Stronger security through structured governance

The solution combines governance, automation, and secure credential management in one system:

  • Centralized management of all applications, with improved transparency, search, and filtering capabilities
  • Secure storage of credentials in Azure Key Vault
  • Automated renewal of secrets and certificates, with targeted notifications for critical events

This helps reduce manual errors and strengthen security over the long term.
