What this template is for

DE.CM-09 — Computing hardware and software integrity monitored. Blocks the device code authentication flow for all users. Device code phishing has become a major attack vector — an attacker tricks a user into entering a code on microsoft.com/devicelogin, which grants the attacker a fully authenticated session. Blocking this flow eliminates the attack entirely for organizations that do not rely on device code auth (most M365 tenants).

What it actually does

Who it covers. Every user in the tenant, when they sign in to all cloud apps.

Who is excluded. Service-provider (GDAP) guest accounts are excluded automatically, so your own technicians keep access if the policy misfires.

When it fires. Only when the sign-in uses the device code flow.

What it enforces. Entra ID will block the sign-in outright.

Deployment state. Report-only.

Augmentt deploys this template in report-only mode. Entra ID evaluates every sign-in and records what would have happened in the sign-in logs, but nothing is blocked or challenged until you switch the policy to On. Review the report-only results before enforcing.

This is an Augmentt Default template, shipped with the product and shared across all customers. Deploying it creates a new policy in the customer tenant; edit the deployed policy rather than the template.
