Connect any app, in any cloud or on premises, to any user – Provide all your users with secure access to your legacy apps. Streamline and modernize access to apps that support legacy authentication, including Kerberos, NTLM, Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), LDAP, SSH, and header-based and form-based authentication.
You can now protect your on-premises and cloud legacy authentication applications by connecting them to Azure AD with your existing application delivery controller or network. This way, you can bridge the gap and strengthen your security posture across all applications with Azure AD capabilities like Azure AD Conditional Access and Azure AD Identity Protection.
Using your existing networking and delivery controller, you can easily protect legacy applications that are still critical to your business processes but that you couldn’t protect before with Azure AD. It’s likely you already have everything you need to start protecting these applications.
The following vendors offer pre-built solutions and detailed guidance for integrating with Azure AD.
- Akamai Enterprise Application Access (EAA)
- Citrix Application Delivery Controller (ADC)
- F5 Big-IP APM
- Zscaler Private Access (ZPA)
