Hello,
You can nudge users to set up Microsoft Authenticator during sign-in. Users go through their regular sign-in, perform multifactor authentication as usual, and then get prompted to set up Microsoft Authenticator. This allows targeted campaigns to move users from less secure authentication methods to Authenticator.
As per the external authentication methods, yes some companies have the need to utilize 3rd party tools, hence Microsoft Custom Control (Preview). Custom controls are a preview capability of the Microsoft Entra ID. When using custom controls, your users are redirected to a compatible service to satisfy authentication requirements outside of Microsoft Entra ID. To satisfy this control, a user's browser is redirected to the external service, performs any required authentication, and is then redirected back to Microsoft Entra ID.
