Have you heard? 📣 Microsoft is rolling out mandatory #MFA for Azure and admin portals, aiming to enhance security and protect against account compromise attacks. ➕ Why the change? MFA blocks over 99% of account compromise attempts. ➕ What’s changing? In 2024, Microsoft began making MFA a requirement for the Azure portal, Microsoft Entra admin centre, and Microsoft Intune admin centre. In 2025, MFA enforcement will extend to the Microsoft 365 admin centre, Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, the Azure mobile app, and IaC tools. ✅ Next steps First, verify that MFA is enabled for your users. We also recommend discovering any user accounts that are being used as service accounts to begin migrating them to workload identities. For more information on the rollout and how to prepare, visit 👉 https://lnkd.in/g7ue3n-z Convverge is here to support you with this process.
