Multi-factor Authentication in Microsoft 365

Written by Yoni Kirsh | June 08, 2018

Everyday, staff across Australia receive phishing emails impersonating Microsoft. This recent proliferation of social engineering and human hacking has seen a drastic increase in emails targeting user identities and credentials - particularly around Office 365.

If the bad guys behind these attacks obtain users' credentials, not even the most impenetrable anti-malware software or firewalls can stop them playing havoc with your core business data.

The layered approach to multi-factor authentication in Microsoft 365 gives data a level of protection against data breaches that traditional username and password combinations cannot provide.

In this webinar, we cover:

  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) in 2018 and beyond
  • MFA deployment
  • User experience considerations
  • Azure AD MFA
  • Holistic MFA strategies
