Enabling MFA 28/04/2021, 5:13 PM

Enabling MFA

To enable MFA, go to the User Properties in Azure Active Directory, and then the Multi-Factor Authentication option.
From there, you can select the users that you want to modify and enable for MFA. You can also bulk enable groups of
users with PowerShell. Users states can be Enabled, Enforced, or Disabled.

On first-time sign-in, after MFA has been enabled, users are prompted to configure their MFA settings. For
example, if you enable MFA so that users must use a mobile device, users will be prompted to configure their mobile
device for MFA. Users must complete those steps, or they will not be permitted to sign in, which they cannot do until
they have validated that their mobile device is MFA-compliant.
