Description:

Verifies that phishing-resistant MFA is enabled for all users.

Weaker forms of MFA do not protect against sophisticated phishing attacks. By enforcing methods resistant to phishing, those risks are minimized.

Configured: Phishing-resistant MFA is enabled for all users.

Not Configured: Phishing-resistant MFA is not enabled for all users.

Scoring: Contributes up to 1 point to the Posture Recommendations score.
