cloud entitlements

About this tag
Cloud entitlements refer to the permissions and access rights assigned to users, devices, and workloads in cloud environments. On WindowsForum.com, discussions focus on Microsoft's cloud entitlement options for activating Extended Security Updates (ESU) for Windows 10 after end of support, particularly for Azure and Windows 365 deployments. Other threads cover the retirement of Microsoft Entra Permissions Management and the transition to Delinea's PCCE for managing cloud entitlements. These topics are relevant for IT administrators and enterprise security teams managing access control, compliance, and migration strategies in hybrid and cloud-based Windows infrastructures.
