Recently one of our clients has requested assistance managing the Security of their Microsoft Azure logins, specifically the multi-factor authentication (MFA) process. With the multi-factor authentication process, an individual will need a login and password as well as an additional key to access the system. This key/additional authentication is primarily accessed and approved through a phone via application or SMS text. This method can be set for all users or customized based on an individual user basis. This ensures that access to your business’ sensitive information is kept secure even if one of the factors is compromised. This tool is important in maintaining your business’ cybersecurity and protecting you from cyberattacks.  

To access the MFA management panel in Azure, follow these steps:

1. Go to Azure Active Directory
2. Select “Security” at the bottom of the “Overview” menu
3. Select “Authentication Methods”
4. Select “Policies” to customize the MFA to suit your organization’s needs
