**Designing Tenants:**

Planning out the design of our tenant will support easy adoption

- Build Secure Foundations: Setup best practices (e.g., SSPR (Self Service Password Reset), MFA, backup global admin, and privileged users), for specific tasks.
- Populate Identity Resources: Add users, create groups, add devices, and setup hybrid identity
- Manage Applications: Identify apps to be used form the app gallery, and register apps from on-premises
- Monitor and automate: Monitor administrators perform access reviews, and automate user life-cycles.
