What you'll learn

Username and password authentication is susceptible to many forms of attack, and multi-factor authentication offers a way to mitigate this threat. Azure multi-factor authentication is a global service that allows you to add a second factor of authentication to your on-premises and cloud based systems using a hardware device already in the hands of your users and customers - their mobile phone. In this course, Implementing and Managing Microsoft Azure Multi-factor Authentication, you'll learn how to configure Azure MFA in the cloud and on-premises. First, you'll discover the self-service options available to users and business administrators, and how to integrate Azure MFA with a variety of technologies and applications. Next, you'll explore the configuration options to integrate Azure MFA with your existing systems. Finally, you'll see how to protect cloud-based applications with MFA and Conditional Access Policies. By the end of this course, you'll know how to deploy, configure, and monitor Azure MFA, in the cloud and on-premises.
