When you try to access any application, the system needs to verify it is you. Normally, for traditional security, you just need to enter your username and password. 

However, with Google Cloud Identity, you can have multilayer security, such as two-step verification or multi-factor authentication. This includes receiving codes via SMS, voice calls, or using Google Authenticator

My company sells this product as part of our IT consultancy, and we use it as a system reseller and Google partner.

In my previous project, we were designing and implementing a cloud foundation for a US-based pharma customer. We set up  Google Cloud Platform for them and used Cloud Identity to manage their end-users. We synchronized directly with Cloud Identity using the Google Cloud Directory Synchronization tool. That allowed us to synchronize user identities from the Microsoft Active Directory to Cloud Identity. We also synchronized Active Directory-based groups to Google Cloud then mapped the users to the groups and used those groups to assign high-end policies on the Google Cloud Platform. We also configured the Cloud Identity Single Sign-On service to enable the end-users to use their Active Directory credentials to log into the Identity Cloud platform via a single sign-on.
