Join Merill Fernando and other guests for our Identity and Network Practitioner Webinar Series!
This October, we’re hosting a three-part webinar series led by expert Merill Fernando for Identity and Network Access practitioners. Join us as we journey from high-level strategy to hands-on implementation, unifying identity and network access every step of the way. Each session builds on the last, helping you move from understanding why a unified approach matters to what are the foundations to get started, and finally to how to configure in practice. The goal is to equip you with actionable skills, expert insights, and resources to secure your organization in a unified, Zero Trust way. Register below: Identity and Network Security Practitioner Webinar Series | Microsoft Community HubMicrosoft Entra Internet Access for iOS in Public Preview!
With the latest update to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on iOS, Organisations licensed for Microsoft Entra Suite or Microsoft Entra Internet Access will have access to Microsoft's Secure Web Gateway (SWG) and traffic forwarding for HTTP/HTTPS traffic, with support for Web-Content Filtering. This has been a huge win for iOS Mobile Security. Previously, Defender for Endpoint on iOS has supported Phishing Protection, M365 Traffic, and Entra Private Access Traffic. Combined with Global Secure Access Threat Intelligence, which consumes indicators from Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph (ISG), Organisations can implement granular internet access controls on iOS devices with integrated, context aware protection against malicious threats.

User Identities in EntraID - how to remove?
I have a user that shows up with multiple identities. No other users are like this and we believe its stopping him from logging in with his alias email address. When i run get-entrauser it returns the following under Identities: {@{signInType=federated; issuer=MicrosoftAccount; issuerAssignedId=}, @{signInType=federated; issuer=MicrosoftAccount; issuerAssignedId=}, @{signInType=userPrincipalName; issuer=OURPRIMARYDOMAIN.onmicrosoft.com; issuerAssignedId=UPN}} Every other account just has this @{signInType=userPrincipalName; issuer=OURPRIMARYDOMAIN.onmicrosoft.com; issuerAssignedId=UPN}} How would i go about removing those identies from that user? Struggling to find any info online.
Force Domain takeover
Hello, Trying to add a custom domain to a new tenant gives me the error "We have confirmed that you own ***, but we cannot add it to this tenant at this time. The domain is already added to a different Office 365 tenant: **** We no longer have access to the different tenant, how can I remove or takeover the domain to use in the new tenant. Tried https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/users-groups-roles/domains-admin-takeover to no avail. Also used the PowerShell command for takeover force without success. How can I speedily resolve this? ThanksDynamic AD group
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.
employeeType 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, BUsers Cannot Change Passwords – Conditional Access Blocking Office 365 Portal (Non-Admin Scenario)
Hi everyone, I’m encountering an issue with Conditional Access that I’d like some input on. 🛑 The Problem: Users are unable to change their passwords (e.g., using Ctrl + Alt + Del on Windows) because access to the Office 365 Portal is blocked by our Conditional Access configuration. The error message states: Access has been blocked by Conditional Access policiesTarget app: Office 365 Portal (App ID: 00000006-0000-0ff1-ce00-000000000000) According to Microsoft documentation, this portal is not classified as an admin portal, yet access is being blocked. ⚙️ The Configuration: We have a Conditional Access policy that: Targets all users Excludes admin accounts Applies to Microsoft Admin Portals Action: Block access This setup worked as designed for preventing users from accessing admin portals — admins can access, users are blocked. However, now when regular users attempt to change their passwords, they seem to trigger access to the Microsoft 365 Portal, which is getting blocked by the policy. ❓ My Questions: Why is the Office 365 Portal (non-admin) being affected by a policy scoped only to admin portals? Is there a recommended exception or configuration change that allows users to perform password changes securely without lifting the block on admin portals? Could this be related to how Microsoft identifies the portal/app in the Conditional Access policy backend? Any insights or experiences with similar setups would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your help.
