MS.AAD.3.6v1 - Phishing-resistant MFA SHALL be required for highly privileged roles.

Information

This is a backup security policy to help protect privileged access to the tenant if the conditional access policy, which requires MFA for all users, is disabled or misconfigured.

Solution

1. Create a conditional access policy enforcing phishing-resistant MFA for highly privileged roles. Configure the following policy settings in the new conditional access policy, per the values below:

Users > Include > Select users and groups > Directory roles > select each of the roles listed in the Highly Privileged Roles section at the top of this document

Target resources > Include > All resources (formerly 'All cloud apps')

Access controls > Grant > Grant Access > Require authentication strength > Phishing-resistant MFA
