Enable MFA method

Dear,

Currently in our company, the authentication methods policy > Microsoft Authenticator defaults to “any”. Either “passwordless” or “Push”.

It is possible to enable the following authentication method through a conditional access policy, currently it is enabled for some users.

Desired authentication method:

 

The current method is as follows:

 

 

Can it be enabled for professional accounts or is it only focused on personal accounts?

Thanks in advance.

    Hi, the "number matching" feature is available for corporate accounts managed through Azure AD. 

    When enabled, during the authentication process the user must confirm the number displayed on their device, which adds an extra layer of security.

    To enable this, log in to the Azure AD portal, navigate to Security > Authentication Methods, and configure Microsoft Authenticator to use number matching. If you want to enforce this only for specific users or scenarios, create a Conditional Access policy that requires MFA with number matching.
