In this lesson, we’ll look at which Azure AD settings at settings that apply to the entire tenant or to all users as default settings. For the most part, Azure enables you to exert granular control over users, groups, and applications through role-based access control and policies. However, this lesson looks at settings that impact an Azure Active Directory instance as properties or default behaviors. As Azure AD’s main function is authentication and authorization, most of the settings are focused on these areas, but we also look and customization and helper settings.
