at a cloud service provider, receiving a request from an entity for services provided by the cloud service provider, the request including user provided identification information;
at the cloud service provider, determining that the user provided identification information does not match stored information associated with a particular organization at the cloud service provider;
at the cloud service provider, identifying that the entity is associated with the particular organization by detecting additional information associated with the entity which is distinguished from the user provided identification information;
at the cloud service provider, based on the entity being associated with the particular organization, and even though the user provided identification information does not match stored information associated with the particular organization, performing a corrective action; and
providing the services to the entity.

a phone number associated with the entity.
9. A computing device, comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more computer readable hardware storage device, wherein the one or more computer readable hardware storage device comprises stored computer executable instructions that are executable by at least one of the one or more processors to cause at least one of the one or more processors to implement a method of controlling services provided to an entity based on the entity being associated with a particular organization, the method comprising:
receiving a request from an entity for services provided by the cloud service provider, the request including user provided identification information;
determining that the user provided identification information does not match stored information associated with a particular organization at the cloud service provider;
identifying that the entity is associated with the particular organization by detecting additional information associated with the entity which is distinguished from the user provided identification information;
based on the entity being associated with the particular organization, and even though the user provided identification information does not match stored information associated with the particular organization, performing a corrective action; and
providing the services to the entity.

13. The computing device of claim 9 , wherein the additional information includes:
a physical location associated with the entity.
14. The computing device of claim 9 , wherein the additional information includes:
an email domain associated with the entity.
15. The computing device of claim 9 , wherein the additional information includes:
an access code associated with the entity.
16. The computing device of claim 9 , wherein the additional information includes:

20. A computer program product comprising one or more computer readable hardware storage devices having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that are executable by one or more processors of a computing system comprising a cloud service provider to cause the computing system to implement a method of controlling services provided to an entity based on the entity being associated with a particular organization, the method comprising:
receiving a request from an entity for services provided by the cloud service provider, the request including user provided identification information;
determining that the user provided identification information does not match stored information associated with a particular organization at the cloud service provider;
identifying that the entity is associated with the particular organization by detecting additional information associated with the entity which is distinguished from the user provided identification information;
based on the entity being associated with the particular organization, and even though the user provided identification information does not match stored information associated with the particular organization, performing a corrective action; and
providing the services to the entity.
