#### Microsoft Entra ID authentication for Ubuntu

authd is a powerful authentication service for Ubuntu, designed to integrate with cloud identity providers like Microsoft Entra ID. It delivers a secure, flexible solution for organizations and individuals who are transitioning to cloud-based identity management on Ubuntu workstations and servers.
authd uses the OAuth Device Authorization Grant and ensures a consistent and secure login experience across Ubuntu Desktop and Server — whether through GDM, SSH, or network services like NFS and Samba.

Key Features

* Cloud identity provider Integration: Connects with Microsoft Entra ID
* Secure Login: authd leverages the OAuth Device Authorization Grant RFC 8628-compliant workflows for reliability and security.
* Open-Source: Free and community-driven, with contributions welcomed.
* Enterprise ready: Ubuntu Pro customers will benefit from the same expanded security and support guarantees.
* authd is free for all Ubuntu Desktop and Server 24.04 LTS users and is under active development. Explore the official documentation for installation and configuration steps, or visit the GitHub repository to contribute or provide feedback.
