Enable Microsoft Entra ID Protection policy to enforce multifactor authentication registration

ZTA.21893LowEntra IDIdentity ProtectionPreview 3.0

Require multifactor authentication (MFA) registration for all users. Based on studies, your account is more than 99% less likely to be compromised if you’re using MFA. Even if you don’t require MFA all the time, this policy ensures your users are ready when it’s needed.

The check runs as part of the whole assessment, with the ZeroTrustAssessment module installed:

Install-Module ZeroTrustAssessment -Scope CurrentUser
Connect-Maester
Invoke-Maester -Pack ZTA -SkipBuiltIn

Leave out -SkipBuiltIn to run Maester’s own checks in the same run.

Product, feature, area and ATT&CK are Maester’s: the assessment does not record them, so Maester keeps them in the pack’s taxonomy.json.
