How to enable/disable Multi-Factor Authentication(MFA) in M365 suite

Image
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is an advanced security feature that strengthens account or application protection by requiring users to verify their identity through two or more factors—such as a password and a phone-generated code—instead of relying solely on a password.  Its is a security protocol that adds an extra layer of protection by requiring users to verify their identity through multiple channels.  MFA significantly strengthens security by making it harder for unauthorized individuals to gain access, even if one factor is compromised. So, if your password is hacked or leak, no-one able to login in your system as code generated by your mobile app during login through MFA is inaccessible to them.  Let's see how easy it is for you to setup.  1. First-step-first - Sign in to M365 Admin Center, then click on ..show all 2. Click on Users and then click on Active users - and then and then click on Multi-factor authentication -    It might ask you to...

On the fly, it is going to call API and get the value and display it inside the DIV tag. As simple as that.  Below the part of the HTML in the  render() method:         <div>             <h5>SharePrice</h5>             <div name="currprice"></div>           </div>         </div>           </section>` ;     this ._getSharePrice(); Below the line of code I used to display the dynamic share price  : this .domElement.querySelector( '#currprice' )?.textContent = `Current Price: $ ${ sharePrice } ` ; This throws me below error saying object is null.

Intelligent Detections Configuration - Microsoft Purview

Image
To meet the compliance needs for your organization, we need to configure several insider risk management settings. These settings apply to all insider risk management policies, regardless of the template we are going to use when creating a policy.  Several areas we need to look and configure right settings there, starting from policy indicators, timeframes, detection groups, intelligent detections, data sharing, groups, assets etc. One interesting configuration area is intelligent detections. Why we need Intelligent Detections and how we can see the value Detecting unusual activities within a minimum number of daily events and place a score for unusual event. Events like increase/decrease access specific media/files/data, access request from specific range of IP or some unallowed domains, access volume data in unusual time - All these unusual events detecting by intelligent detections configuration are getting scored up, and lately this score will be transformed into low, med...

BTW - here is Part 1 of Insider Risk Management post -  https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/474784438622669562/6058210346412545481     There are two main types of insider risk we found: inadvertent and malicious.   Inadvertent: An employee unintentionally causes harm -  unsafe actions, misuses resources, causes accidental data leakage   Malicious: An employee sets out to cause harm - data stole, IP theft, Unauthorized disclosure   Malicious cases, while less common, can be more costly.     Question is how does a company help mitigate all these risk factors and free from all these bad things and concentrate on Organizational growth only. This is most sensitive program, and person who lead or ...

With the emerge and vast acceptable of digitalization and as the digital landscape continues to grow, the risk landscape for organizations has been changed significantly. Earlier days, insider risk management team are part of the security team who make sure some kind of end-user training on data protection is in place and ensuring the security of corporate assets are in place.  Due to digitalization and as industry shift totally towards cloud era, the data size is keep growing and growing in exponential manner. More apps, more application organization is demanding and hence more monitoring and required tight control is required to be in place. Personally, I believe due to Covid, the work from home culture demands more the role of Chief Information Security Officer (responsible for data protection and manage the insider risk threats).  Controlling the security/threats/damages now is not limited to some modules/check points/assessments, it is now altogether a new era and hence M...
