CIRA Microsoft Pilot Program
Test out additional Microsoft licenses
As the technology landscape continues to evolve, so do Microsoft's offerings and the needs of TAC County Information Resources Agency (CIRA) members. As a result, CIRA has launched a pilot program to allow our email members to try out additional Microsoft licensing that we do not currently offer. Participants can choose from more than 150 licenses. Don't have CIRA email services yet? Learn more.
Some of the benefits offered by the additional licensing include:
- Additional security features
- Enhanced reporting
- Endpoint management through Intune
- Mobile Device Management
- Conditional access policies
