Businesses are facing various difficulties with their on-premises servers due to the rise in cyberattacks. Among others, these include hiring security specialists, buying and deploying security products, and expanding their capacity while also responding to more complicated threats. Custom security attributes in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) are business-specific attributes (key-value pairs) that you can define and assign to Azure AD objects. These attributes can be applied to store information, categorize objects, manage roles, or implement fine-grained access control over Azure services. In this article, we will explain how to use Custom Security Attributes in Azure AD.<\/p>\n
Here are the advantages of using Custom Security Attributes in Azure AD:<\/p>\n
Verify that the Attribute Definition Administrator or Attribute Assignment Administrator roles are allocated to you. If not, contact your administrator to make sure you have been assigned the correct role at the tenant- or attribute set level. By default, the Global Administrator role and other administrator roles do not have access to read, define, or assign custom security attributes. A Global Administrator can assign these positions to themselves if necessary.<\/li>\n
Add attribute sets to organize and manage related custom security attributes.<\/p>\n
Choose the individuals who have access to read, create, or assign custom security attributes in an attribute set.<\/li>\n
Add your custom security attributes to your directory. You can select whether values are predefined, free-form, single, or numerous as well as the date type (Boolean, integer, or text).<\/li>\n
Assign custom security attributes to Azure AD objects for your business scenarios.<\/p>\n
