cloud-based financial analysis tools, collaboration platforms, and
third-party financial management software. In addition to software

on our own computers and connected with Microsoft Entra ID to keep one system for
managing identity across everything we use.
Microsoft Entra ID has significantly improved the user experience, allowing easy and secure access to business systems. By leveraging biometric and multi-factor authentication (MFA), users can enjoy a seamless and secure login process.
