Description:

Verifies that at least one Conditional Access policy is configured to require new password when user risk is high.

Why:

With the user risk policy turned on, Entra ID protection detects the probability that a user account has been compromised. Administrators can configure a user risk conditional access policy to automatically respond to a specific user risk level.

Configured: At least one Conditional Access policy is configured to require new password when user risk is high.

Not Configured: No Conditional Access policy is configured to require new password when user risk is high.

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