Exclusion of Copilot App (for O365) from Conditional Access Policies does not work
Hi, we've built a Conditional Access Policy in EntraID that forces MFA for all Cloud Apps. We want to exclude "Microsoft 365 Copilot"/ "Copilot App" so no Reauthentication is necessary for Copilot in the frame of accessing O365 content. Exclusion has been made for a range of identified Copilot applications that are shown in Sign-in logs. However, reauthentication still pops up. No other conditional access policy is applied. It's this specific policy that requires reauthentication. What's the reason why the exclusion does not work? Is there something else necessary to be taken into consideration so the exclusion works fine? Many thanks in advance!
MFA breakglass account recommendations?
Hi folks. Looking at the new Authentication Methods settings, and trying to consider the scenario where someone disables all of these methods by accident. We require MFA on all accounts (using the 'require MFA' param of Conditional Access). If these are all disabled, there's no MFA method available... Trying to think of ways around this, for that situation. Things I've considered - cert based auth, telephone auth, etc - all require the corresponding auth method to be enabled. How should this be handled?Join Merill Fernando and other guests for our Identity and Network Practitioner Webinar Series!

One of the areas I’m most passionate about is identity-driven security. Microsoft Entra makes it possible to apply Zero Trust principles directly at the identity layer. ⚡ Conditional Access – the backbone of modern access policies. 👤 Privileged Identity Management (PIM) – ensuring just-in-time, least privilege for admins. 🛡️ Identity Protection – risk-based policies to stop compromised sign-ins in real time. In my labs, I’ve seen how these features transform security posture without adding friction for users. Coming soon: - Step-by-step breakdown of a risky user detection scenario. - A visual guide to Conditional Access controls for critical apps. Would love to exchange insights with others experimenting in this space — what Entra features are you finding most impactful? #MicrosoftEntra | #ConditionalAccess | #IdentityProtection | #MicrosoftLearn | #PerparimLabsShape the future of our communities!

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.
