    Another issue with Secure Score.

     

    "You should require that all of your users reset their password at least every 60 days"

Was looking at my admins, and notice I have a Dirsync Admin, how do I setup the Dirysync admin with MFA?

 

I also have an admin my vendor setup as the initial admin, and said we did not need to use this but it had to be there MFA, is this true?

Newer versions of AADConnect support MFA, using a GA account with MFA enabled should not be a problem.

    Vasil's got it right. I should also note that the Secure Score gives MFA credit to organizations that have MFA enabled in dirsync'ed on-prem directories, so long as the federated directory configuration includes the 'SupportsMFA' flag in AAD.

    Thanks,
