MFA setup for verifing my customer identity
Thank you,
That is nice.
Also, as I mentioned our customers has mfa to verify their identity for current products.
Is there a way to veify their 6 digit code generated from Microsoft authenticator app?
For example
I enter user email address into a azure product if there is any (in my admin panel) and user tell me his/her 6 digit code and I will check if the code is valid or not.
Basically, how to validate the 6 digit code on behalf of the user?
Hi Ashkanscb,
thanks for the update.
Validating the 6-digit code generated by the Microsoft Authenticator app typically involves utilizing Azure AD's built-in capabilities. However, for security reasons, manually validating these codes on behalf of the user is not a standard practice. The codes are intended for use by the end-user as part of the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) process.
For identity verification, it is recommended to have the user complete the MFA challenge themselves to ensure the security of the process and prevent unnecessary sharing of temporary MFA codes.
If you need to determine which MFA method is assigned to users in Azure AD, you can do so through the Azure portal with global admin credentials. Navigate to Azure Active Directory, click on Security, and then access Authentication Methods. You can explore "User registration details" and "Registration and reset events" to view information about users' registration for specific authentication methods in MFA.
