You don't need to change apps and services to use Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication. Administrators can choose forms of secondary authentication and configure challenges for MFA based on configuration decisions. When users register themselves for Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication, they can also register for self-service password reset in one step.

Something you are - biometrics like a fingerprint or face scan.Īzure AD Multi-Factor Authentication can also further secure password reset.

Something you have, such as a trusted device that's not easily duplicated, like a phone or hardware key.

Something you know, typically a password.

When you require a second form of authentication, security is increased because this additional factor isn't something that's easy for an attacker to obtain or duplicate.Īzure AD Multi-Factor Authentication works by requiring two or more of the following authentication methods:

If the password is weak or has been exposed elsewhere, an attacker could be using it to gain access. If you only use a password to authenticate a user, it leaves an insecure vector for attack.

Multi-factor authentication is a process in which users are prompted during the sign-in process for an additional form of identification, such as a code on their cellphone or a fingerprint scan.
