Azure Active Directory (AAD)
1549 TopicsConditional Access Policies, Guest Access and the "Microsoft Invitation Acceptance Portal"
Hello Identity Experts, We are expanding access to our M365 resources to Guests and as such we are modifying our existing CA policies to provide the appropriate restrictions and controls. We are using principles of least privilege best practices to BLOCK All Cloud Apps for Guests (With Exceptions) and REQUIRE MFA for Guests. We've followed a number of blogs detailing the same essential set of policies / well-known identity pros: https://danielchronlund.com/2020/11/26/azure-ad-conditional-access-policy-design-baseline-with-automatic-deployment-support/ The idea is to allow guests to access Office 365 and My Apps (and AIP) but block all others plus require MFA for guests. Seems pretty straightforward and again we've seen this implemented and suggested by a number of experts. This doesn't work however and we've had a colleague test this in a separate tenant with just these two policies enabled. What is happening is that Guests, while redeeming their invitation, are triggering the BLOCK All Cloud Apps for Guests policy when they access the "Microsoft Invitation Acceptance Portal". This App is, unfortunately, one that cannot be excluded from CA policy (there is no target available for it). Guests receive the "You don't have access to this" error with the AppName = Microsoft Invitation Acceptance Portal and error 53003 in the AAD sign-in logs (along with the fact that the BLOCK policy caused the failure). What is also odd is that if the Guest returns to the invitation link, they can then complete the registration. Something is off/wrong and we're curious if anyone else has encountered this using these policies. Thanks in advance!Solved18KViews0likes7CommentsEntra ID Connect cloud sync: User and group sync is quarantined

Am trying to create group with dynamic user membership using attribute "Employee Type", tried to get details from Extension attribute but didn't find any option, Did anyone tried this and able to do ? I found a posting where it said to create a custom attribute that would be populated by the 'employee Type' field. That just seems a little strange to me to to create an attribute to be exactly like the one that is already there.623Views1like4CommentsAzure AD Dynamic Security Groups creation with inclusion and exclusion.
Hi All, I have a query regarding Azure AD Dynamic Security Group creation and would like to get some advise from this forum. I want to create an Azure AD Dynamic Security Group which should include all the members in the tenant and at the same time it should also exclude the members from a specific Azure AD security group in the tenant from becoming a member of that Dynamic Security Group . So, basically it has to do inclusion as well as exclusion at the same time and I'm not able to come up with the right syntax to do this. Could you please check and let me know how this can be achieved .1.2KViews0likes1CommentHow to exclude security group members using dynamic query

Hi Experts I am using exchange hybrid environment, all my users are created on onprem and migrated to cloud. for example i have user1 whose department number is 100, every user has department number in AD attribute. i have another user whose department number is 101. my requirement is to add these users to office365 unified group dynamically, i.e user whose department number is 100 or 101 should be added to this office365 group dynamically and if tomorrow employee leaves the company it should be removed automatically,or is it possible to create a dynamic group in Azure AD to pull the members of department 100 and 101 and add this group to office365 unified group. Experts guide me on this.1.6KViews0likes3CommentsemployeeType attribute for Dynamic Group features
Dear Microsoft, I would like to suggest the feature of Dynamic Groups to support the employeeType attribute. As dynamic groups are used by features like Identity Governance Auto-Assignment policies and could be the base for Conditional Access Policies, this feature would be aligned with the Secure Futures Initiatives and the Conditional Access Policy Architecture implementation recommendation using various personas (Conditional Access architecture and personas - Azure Architecture Center | Microsoft Learn) as well as the Microsoft Recommendation not to use extensionAttributes for purposes other than a Hybrid Exchange deployment, as well as having Named Attributes for such important security configurations and Entitlement Management. Thanks, B293Views1like2CommentsDynamic group membership rules stopped working
We've been using the following the following dynamic membership rule to check if a user is a member of another group: user.memberOf -any (group.objectId -in ['2b930be6-f46a-4a70-b1b5-3e4e0c483fbf']) The group is an Active Directory group that is represented in Entra with the stated Entra group object Id. The validation fails for every user and looks like this: It seems that all out dynamic groups are affected and stopped working. Have you seen this before? Thanks.419Views0likes5CommentsFido passkeys blocked by policy
Hi all I'm helping out a customer with deploying physical passkeys and I'm running into a weird error. I've activated the sign in method and selected the two AAGuids for the Authenticator app and I've added the right AAGuid for the brand and model of passkey we are using. We can select the authentication method and enroll the security correctly but when trying to sign in using it we get the error as displayed in the attached picture. When checking the sign in logs i get this error message FIDO sign-in is disabled via policy and the error code is: 135016 I've not been able to track down any policy that would be blocking passkeys. anyone got any ideas?391Views0likes6Comments
