Planning for mandatory multifactor authentication for Azure and other admin portals learn.microsoft.com/en-us/ent…

At Microsoft, we’re committed to providing our customers with the highest level of security. One of the most effective security measures available to them is multifactor authentication (MFA). Research by Microsoft shows that MFA can block more than 99.2% of account compromise attacks.

That’s why, starting in 2024, we’ll enforce mandatory MFA for all Azure sign-in attempts. For more background about this requirement, see our blog post. This topic covers which applications and accounts are affected, how enforcement gets rolled out to tenants, and other common questions and answers.
