A user's Azure MFA Authentication methods shows differently to admins
Hi Folks,
Is there a reason why Azure user's MFA registered authentication methods shows differently to admins? A user can see all his registered methods through the security info but azure admins sees only a single method. Tried a resetting MFA and even with a brand new set of users/admins but its all behaves the same. Any ideas appreciated !
Admin View - AAD Portal
User View https://aka.ms/setupsecurityinfo
- It's normal that admins don't see the Authenticator app for a user.

- In addition to the previous reply you can read more about it in the attached link. As you’ll see the information is ”kept private” as default.
