Can I turn off MFA for my entire organization? #M365AMA
In this episode, the #M365AMA panel discusses the following community question:
“Two step verification help, please, I keep going in circles. I’d like to turn this off for my entire organization (licensed and guest users) can I do that as an admin or is it per individual? I just want them to be able to log in. If it is per individual, can you show me steps that work? Every article I find and try the link for the security center, it asks for my log in and says I don’t exist….. Thank you.”

Some relevant notes/links shared by the team:
- Not enough detail on this. If user cannot login to alter the MFA settings, then there is a bigger issue with her permissions. MFA configuration requires a Security Administrator or Global Administrator role.
