This post is all about setting the preferred multi-factor authentication method using Graph API. We already know the system-preferred multi-factor authentication method, where Microsoft Entra ID will use the strongest method of all the registered methods, but this time we take a look a the default method set by the user. At the time of writing, the default method can only be set by using the new authentication sign-in preferences in Graph API; however, some of the API’s are already… 

A new feature has popped up in Azure AD: System-preferred multifactor authentication (MFA). This will allow administrators to enforce the most secure method for Azure MFA. For example, if a user has multiple methods registered, the most secure method will be prompted first. How do I know what method is the strongest, you may ask? Here is the current order from most to least secure methods, currently supported in Azure Active Directory: This list is dynamic and may change as…

I was recently invited by the Dutch Virtual Desktop User Group to present a session about Identity Security. Now, because this was in Dutch (my native language), I decided to do a ‘short’ write-up in English, so everybody can benefit from this. I shared 10 tips on how to secure your identities, but not before I showed how easy it is to phish Office 365 credentials, even if they are protected with MFA. You can also check the recording in… 

This blog post is all about the new Temporary Access Pass in Azure Active Directory. At the time of writing, this feature is not officially announced, but the policy, settings, and API are now available. Time to dive in for some first experiences. What is a Temporary Access Pass?
