What is the least disruptive way to enforce MFA? #M365AMA
In this episode, the #M365AMA panel discusses the following community question:
“I have a company that currently does not have 2fa enabled. What will be the least disruptive way to enable it for them? One of my concerns is that a lot of folks may not remember their passwords. If I enable the 2fa will they be able to use all of their apps or will they be forced to sign in after 2fa is enabled. Would the easiest thing be to send a company wide email with the link to the 2fa page for them to register and just deal with any forgotten passwords at that point? Thanks for any tips!”
