We run a decentralized company with multiple tenants. Entra Private Access seems like a nice way to give secured access to on-premise applications from the corporate level.

Does this solution support granting access to external guest accounts? Seems simpler than setting up VPNs between the tenants. Would be great to leverage this on top of Cross-Tenant Sync or MTO.

    Hi @Pascal Couture

    Thank you for reaching Microsoft Forum!

    Microsoft Private Access is designed to provide secure access to services over a private endpoint within your virtual network. It's not a replacement for VPNs, which are designed to provide secure access to your entire network.
    Regarding your question, Microsoft Private Access does support granting access to external guest accounts. You can use Azure AD B2B to invite external users to your tenant and grant them access to the resources that are exposed through Private Access. Also, this feature is work for Cross-Tenant Sync and Multi-Tenant Organizations.
