# Azure Integrations

If your organization uses Azure as a cloud platform, Apono can help you securely manage access to your Azure cloud-based services, subscriptions, and resource groups.

By identifying and transforming existing privileges, Apono can shift your cloud management from broad permissions to on-demand [access flows](https://docs.apono.io/docs/access-flows/access-flows). Through our integrations, Apono enables you to perform the following access tasks:

* **Limit Access:** Discover existing privileges in Azure and convert them to just-in-time Access Flows.
* **Enable Self-Service Access:** Allow developers to request access to Azure services, buckets, and instances via Slack.
* **Automate Approval Workflows:** Create automatic approval processes for sensitive Azure resources.
* **Restrict Third-Party Access:** Grant third-parties (customers or vendors) time-based access to specific services with MFA verification.
* **Review Access:** Audit user cloud access, permissions granted, and reasons for access across Azure.
