🔐 Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adds a second layer of security to your Microsoft 365 accounts. It requires users to verify their identity using a mobile app or text code in addition to their password.

👨‍💼 Step 1: Enable MFA from Admin Center

• Login to Microsoft 365 Admin Center
• Go to Users > Active Users
• Click on Multi-factor authentication at the top
• A new page will open → Select the users you want to enable MFA for
• Click on Enable → Confirm

📱 Step 2: User Setup & Enrollment

Once enabled, users will be prompted to set up MFA the next time they log in. They can choose one of the following:

• Microsoft Authenticator app (Recommended)
• Text message code (SMS)
• Phone call verification

📲 Recommended: Microsoft Authenticator App

Download and install the Microsoft Authenticator app from the App Store or Google Play. Scan the QR code shown during MFA setup to complete the process.

⚙️ Optional: Enforce MFA via Conditional Access

For organizations using Azure AD Premium, you can create Conditional Access policies to enforce MFA based on location, device, or app access.
