In privilege identity management, we can enforce MFA verification during the activation process. When this setting is in place, eligible users should have valid MFA claims to proceed with the role activation. But now we can use conditional access policies with PIM role activation. This will allow us to enforce more advanced controls than MFA on role activation. As an example, before the user…
In my previous blog post, I explained how to set up sign-in risk-based Azure conditional access policy. This article can be accessed using this link. As I explained in the article, sign-in risk is calculating based on user access behavior. If the user access behavior is flagged as risky, most probably the user account is also compromised. Most of the time, these compromised accounts are sold or…
Some time ago I wrote an article about sign-in risk-based conditional access policies. But things have been changed over time and I thought it is time to update it with new content.
Let’s assume we have a web application that is published via the internet. To access the services, the user has to provide a user name and password. If one of the users’ accounts compromised, how the system…
Multi-factor authentication is no longer a privilege. MFA is providing an additional layer of security for identities. MFA solutions are getting cheaper and cheaper. You even can enable MFA for free on certain online services. Microsoft outlook email is a good example of that. When it comes to cloud services this is more and more important.
Azure MFA is cloud-based multi-factor service which can…
