Protecting Azure functions with your Azure Active Directory

Security is a vital aspect of any application, including Azure Functions. However, it's common to overlook security measures or implement them as an afterthought. But did you know that Azure Active Directory (AAD) offers an excellent option to add authentication to your Azure Functions? By implementing AAD authentication, you can ensure that only authorized users can access your app and data while also tracking who's calling your endpoints.

In this session, we'll cover how to implement AAD authentication to your Azure Functions and secure your app effectively. By the end of this session, you'll have the knowledge and tools to reinforce your Azure Functions' security and prevent unauthorized access.

Join me and take the first step in securing your Azure Functions with AAD authentication today.
