Video: Conditional Access Policy
Estimated time: 10 minutes
Goal
Create a conditional access policy that requires MFA when connecting to Azure with Azure management tools.
Pre-requisites
- Azure subscription
- Azure AD tenant with Premium P2 trial
- A test user account in the global admin role in an Azure AD tenant. The account does not have MFA configured.
-
An available e-mail address or mobile phone with SMS text capability
Completing previous tasks will meet pre-requisites 1-3. You may need to disable MFA for the test user.
Requirements
- Create an Azure AD conditional access policy that requires MFA when an Azure AD account from your tenant accesses an Azure management tool.
- Validate the conditional access policy
Requirement 1: Create and configure an Azure AD Conditional Access Policy
Define a conditional access policy for a global admin user. Use the following settings:
- Name: TaskPolicy
- Users and groups: ga
- Cloud apps or actions: Microsoft Azure Management
- Access Controls: Grant access with MFA
- Enble policy
Requirement 2: Validate the conditional access policy
You will now test the conditional access policy by logging in as the test global admin user.
- Open a new browser (or private/incognito window) and log in to https://myapps.microsoft.com as the test user.
- Click the Azure portal link.
- You should be prompted for MFA information.
