System-preferred MFA feature and how to control it via the Graph API
In today's digital age, security is a top priority for organizations. One common ask from users is to configure a default method for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) challenges. In the per-user MFA scenario, some controls were available by adjusting the StrongAuthenticationMethods property through Set-MsolUser cmdlets. However, as Microsoft moves away from this method, users must now adapt to newer frameworks.
This article discusses the System-Preferred MFA feature and how to customize it through the Graph API. Through this API, users can configure a default method, such as a phone call, to be used as part of an MFA challenge. This feature empowers organizations to take a proactive approach to security, ensuring their systems remain protected against the latest threats.
So, if you're looking to enhance your organization's security posture, this article is a must-read. It delves into the details of how to leverage the Graph API to configure MFA challenges to meet your unique needs.
