In 2026, a simple password is not enough. Microsoft Entra ID requires advanced configuration to withstand modern account takeover techniques.

Conditional Access 2.0

Conditional access policies must evolve. We implement mechanisms based on real-time risk signals, blocking logins from untrusted locations and non-compliant devices.

PIM and Just-In-Time Access

Administrative accounts should not hold permanent privileges. Privileged Identity Management (PIM) allows granting access only when needed, drastically reducing the impact of potential account compromise.

Decommissioning Legacy Auth

Protocols like POP3 or IMAP bypass MFA. Their total removal is the first step in every hardening project we execute at ExColo.
