is it possible to join Sophos XG v18 with Azure for the authentication process?

My Question now is can XG V18 EAP1 join AzureAD directory some method now directly from Sophos XG itself??  I will keep looking out for Kb articles mathcing AzureAD join frin XG.  So can V18 EAP1 connect to Azure AD (which is basically office 365 drectory too)_  I see there is a new Kerboros authentication method but i assume that is for on-Prem DC's still right??  I also assume thats the same for the WEB AD auth method now?? 

So is there a method to directly auth to Azure AD without addons??

Thanks

  • Yeah was hoping we would get something in XG V18, Sophos have Azure AD Sync in Central still so I should be able to move back to just that now SAM Account Names shoudnt cause Security heartbeat username reporting issues now i assume so I should be able to move back to just Centrals AAD sync offering, but if its in Central then i was hoping the new XG v18 would have its own similar AAD sync.  Until I read something from sophos regarding AAD from XG natively ill stick to my JumpCloud LDAP from XG v18 until ive taken another stab at Centrals AAD sync tool again in the hopes Security Heartbeat Usernames wont cause issues because of SAM Account Names again.  I did create my own Sophos Ideas request regarding AAD from XG a while ago but i can hope something might show up beyond EAP3 for now though...
