I’m an Azure Architect, and I’m always looking to learn more about security and authorization options in Azure. It’s one of the reasons I was interested in reading this recent publication from Packt.This is the second book I’ve had the opportunity to read by Sjoukje Zaal. The first book was Azure DevOps Explained, and Zaal approaches Azure Active Directory for Secure Application Development with the same care and detail that they put into the DevOps book.The book begins with a thorough overview of the Microsoft’s Identity Platform. You’ll learn the basics of setting up an Azure AD Tenant, adding users, and the differences among Azure AD, Azure AD B2B, and Azure AD B2C.To understand how Azure and your custom application integrate to allow for security, you’ll need to understand the Azure AD Application Model. Basically, the goal here is to either sign in users to your application or direct them to another sign-in service or identity provider. And this isn’t just theory, there are solid examples that walk you through registering an application, setting scope, and configuring permissions through the portal. There’s also instructions for using the Azure Command Line Interface and PowerShell to register an application - perfect if you need to script out the process.Part one of the book wraps up with an overview of the different application types and how user consent works. Authorization code flow is a tricky thing to learn when you’re just starting out with authentication and authorization concepts. This concept is illustrated with a step-by-step diagram. And an introduction is made to authorization methods like OAuth 2.0, JWTs, and OAuth concepts like Code Flow with Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE). User consent and the user consent experience and covered, as well.Part 2 of the book really dives deep into Authentication and Protocols. This is where you’ll learn to apply concepts for second generation protocols like OAuth 2, OpenID Connect, and MSAL. Flows are also covered in detail here. By the time you finish Chapters 4 and 5 you’ll understand classic authentication processes and the latest approaches to securely authenticating.Chapter 6 is interesting because it gives a technical overview of the Microsoft Graph API, the Graph Explorer, and how to use Graph SDKs. There’s a detailed explanation of how to build out a .Net web application that connects to the API and retrieves a profile. It’s a great, practical way to learn the basics of working with the Graph.The final portions of the book cover how to use Azure B2C. B2C is important to learn if you plan to develop a SaaS application that will use emails from somewhere other than your tenant. Everything you need to know about B2C is covered here, from setting up the sign-up pages for your users, to creating custom policies, and creating an encryption key.Key features of the book that I think make it ideal for the application developer looking to understand more about Azure AD and application integration are the many diagrams that help explain some rather complicated concepts. There are also code samples and screenshots of where to go in the Azure portal to set up the various resources and configurations. Almost every chapter includes links to further reading resources.

I really enjoyed reading this book as it is well-written and goes from the basics and slowly builds up your Azure AD knowledge. Also contains a bunch of practical, step by step, examples of how to do things in Azure AD, Azure CLI, Microsoft Graph, Azure AD B2C, etc. while providing all the necessary background information as well (with optional next steps). This is why I would recommend this book, not only to developers, but also to anyone that works with Azure AD.

Naresh Kumar Aug 24, 2022

This is an Amazing resource for Azure AD, Identity and access management, and different deployment models (b2b,b2c).Would recommend this resource - Azure Active Directory for Secure Application Development

Ahmed Jun 04, 2022

Excellent book on Azure AD, it will provide you with a solid foundation on Azure AD with hands-on experience on the basic scenarios of authentication and authorization. It also dedicates an entire section for Azure AD B2C. Highly recommended!
