1. Identity Driven Security
Privileged Identity Management
With Azure AD Privileged Identity Management, you can manage, control, and monitor access within your organization. This includes access to resources in Azure AD and other Microsoft online services like Office 365 or Microsoft Intune. This demo shows how a Global Administrator can grant a super user elevated access for a limited period.
The Azure AD Privileged Identity Management console in the Azure Portal provides important information such as:
Alerts that point out opportunities to improve security
The number of users assigned to each privileged role
The number of eligible and permanent admins
Ongoing access reviews

4. Point out: Alerts and Role Summary.
Contoso has a number of permanent Global Admins. They have full access and control over the directory and the Office 365 tenant all the time. That leaves Contoso compromised and open to malicious attacks all the time.
With Privileged Identity Management Contoso can decide who should have permanent access and who should just have temporary access when required.
CLICK STEP(S)
Under Role summary, click the Global Administrator role.

5. Isaiah does not need permanent admin access so the admin sets him to eligible.
CLICK STEP(S)

Closing remarks:
With Azure Active Directory Privileged Identity Management, you can manage, control, and monitor access within your organization. This includes access to resources in Azure AD and other Microsoft online services like Office 365 or Microsoft Intune.
Organizations want to minimize the number of people who have access to secure information or resources, because that reduces the chance of a malicious user getting that access. However, users still need to carry out privileged operations in Azure, Office 365, or SaaS apps. Organizations give users privileged access in Azure AD without monitoring what those users are doing with their admin privileges. Azure AD Privileged Identity Management helps to resolve this risk.
Azure AD Privileged Identity Management helps you:
See which users are Azure AD administrators
Enable on-demand, "just in time" administrative access to Microsoft Online Services like Office 365 and Intune
Get reports about administrator access history and changes in administrator assignments
Get alerts about access to a privileged role
