Problems Logging In Due to Multi-Factor Authentication
At the moment, I am unable to log in to Azure with my account (Global Administrator). Although I am also a Microsoft Partner and have 10 credits for support requests, I cannot create a support request here. Therefore, I have to post in this forum. I can log in to Office 365, PowerApps, Power Automate, and other services with MFA without any issues. However, when I log in to portal.azure.com, I am prompted for authentication again immediately after logging in, and I cannot proceed further from there. I have created two tickets with Office 365 and Microsoft Entra ID, but neither ticket has successfully resolved the issue. Here is what we have tried so far: Disabled MFA, but MFA still appears. Successfully removed my guest account from other organizations. The problem still persists. What can I do here? Can Microsoft Azure contact me since I still have 10 credits?Enhance Your Online Security: A Step-by-Step Guide to Implementing Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Questions & answers about Microsoft Authenticator app - Azure AD | Microsoft Docs Q: How are my passwords protected by the Authenticator app? A: Authenticator app already provides a high level of security for multi-factor authentication and account management, and the same high security bar is also extended to managing your passwords. Strong authentication is needed by Authenticator app: Signing into Authenticator requires a second factor. This means that your passwords inside Authenticator app can't be accessed even if someone has your Microsoft account password. Autofill data is protected with biometrics and passcode: Before you can autofill password on an app or site, Authenticator requires biometric or device passcode. This ensures that even if someone else has access to your device, they cannot fill or see your password, as they’d be unable to provide the biometric or device PIN. Furthermore, a user cannot open the Passwords page unless they provide biometric or PIN, even if they turn off App Lock in app settings. Encrypted Passwords on the device: Passwords on device are encrypted, and encryption/decryption keys are never stored and always generated on-the-fly. Passwords are only decrypted when user wants to, that is, during autofill or when user wants to see the password, both of which require biometric or PIN. Cloud and network security: Your passwords on the cloud are encrypted and decrypted only when they reach your device. Passwords are synced over an SSL-protected HTTPS connection, which ensures no attacker can eavesdrop on sensitive data when it is being synced. We also ensure we check the sanity of data being synced over network using cryptographic hashed functions (specifically, hash-based message authentication code).Saved Passwords in Edge are now available to All apps on Mobile - System Wide Password Manager
