Project overview
Our project aims to launch a new website for our online grocery retailer. The primary goal is to ensure seamless sign-in and account creation experiences for both existing and new customers. The marketing team emphasizes brand representation, while the security team focuses on protecting user accounts. To achieve our goal, we’ll implement Microsoft Entra External ID, a cloud-hosted identity and access management solution.

- During Sign-Up: Configure account creation, attribute collection, account types, and extension for information verification.
- Account Security: Prompt users to enroll in multifactor authentication for enhanced security.
