How to govern Entra ID

A step-by-step guide to governing Entra ID with Rencore: detect with 13 policies, review with 4 reports, and remediate with 0 automations.

Definition

Governing Entra ID means keeping its access, configuration, and lifecycle under continuous control rather than reacting after something breaks. Rencore governs Entra ID with 13 pre-built policies, 4 reports, and 0 automations, so teams can detect risk, review posture, and remediate with an audit trail. The steps below turn that coverage into a repeatable routine.

Steps

  1. Inventory Entra ID

    Connect Entra ID and let Rencore build a continuous inventory of its resources, owners, and configuration, so governance starts from what exists rather than a stale export.

  2. Detect with policies

    Turn on the pre-built policies that cover Entra ID to surface oversharing, sprawl, and misconfiguration on the first scan, before writing a single custom rule.

  3. Review by owner and severity

    Use the Entra ID reports to review findings by owner, category, and severity, and to share them with stakeholders who do not have a seat in the platform.

  4. Remediate and automate

    Apply automations to fix findings at scale, route sensitive changes through approvals, and keep every action reversible and logged for the audit trail.
