This control only protects cloud accounts and therefore its overall protection coverage is Minimal.

MFA can provide protection against an adversary that obtains valid credentials by requiring the adversary to complete an additional authentication process before access is permitted. This is an incomplete protection measure though as the adversary may also have obtained credentials enabling bypassing the additional authentication method.

Requiring the use of MFA for all users can significantly reduce the likelihood of adversaries gaining access to the environment's cloud accounts.

Requiring the use of MFA along with conditional access policies may reduce the likelihood of adversaries making credential modifications, administrator changes, account manipulation, changes to permissions, etc.

Requiring the use of MFA along with conditional access policies may reduce the likelihood of adversaries making credential modifications, administrator changes, account manipulation, changes to permissions, etc.

Requiring the use of MFA along with conditional access policies may reduce the likelihood of adversaries making modifications, such as changes to email delegate permissions.

Requiring the use of MFA along with conditional access policies may reduce the likelihood of adversaries making credential modifications, administrator changes, account manipulation, changes to permissions, etc.

Requiring the use of MFA to register devices in Entra ID along with conditional access policies can reduce the likelihood of successfu use of this technique.

MFA provides significant protection against password compromises, requiring the adversary to complete an additional authentication method before their access is permitted.

MFA provides significant protection against password compromises, requiring the adversary to complete an additional authentication method before their access is permitted.

MFA can significantly reduce the impact of a password compromise, requiring the adversary to complete an additional authentication method before their access is permitted.

MFA can significantly reduce the impact of a password compromise, requiring the adversary to complete an additional authentication method before access is permitted.

MFA can significantly reduce the impact of a password cracking, requiring the adversary to complete an additional authentication method before access is permitted. Based on studies, your account is less likely to get compromised by 99.9% by enabling MFA against the following techniques, for example: phishing, brute force, credential stuffing, key logging, etc.

MFA can significantly reduce the impact of a password compromise, requiring the adversary to complete an additional authentication method before their access is permitted.

MFA can significantly reduce the impact of a password spraying, requiring the adversary to complete an additional authentication method before access is permitted. Based on studies, your account is less likely to get compromised by 99.9% by enabling MFA against the following techniques: phishing, brute force, credential stuffing, key logging, etc.

MFA can significantly reduce the impact from adversaries creating accounts by requiring an additional authentication method for verification (e.g., Microsoft Authenticator, Authenticator Lite (in Outlook), Windows Hello for Business, FIDO2 security key, OATH hardware token (preview), OATH software token, SMS, Voice call, etc.)

MFA provides significant protection by enforcing and restricting access to resources (e.g., cloud storage, APIs, etc.).

Entra MFA can provide partial security protection against phishing tactics. It is a security measure that adds an extra layer of protection against phishing attacks by requiring users to verify their identity through more than one method.

Entra MFA can provide partial security protection against phishing tactics. It is a security measure that adds an extra layer of protection against phishing attacks by requiring users to verify their identity through more than one method.

Entra MFA can be used to implement limits upon the maximum number of MFA request prompts that can be sent to users in period of time and throttles sign-in attempts in certain cases involving repeated authentication requests.
