Needs Entra ID P2

Everyone who holds a role that can change security settings, users or data. Problems first.

Emergency Global Administrator accounts for when normal sign-in breaks. Microsoft recommends two, cloud-only, excluded from Conditional Access, signing in with a FIDO2 key or passkey kept somewhere safe.

| breakglass@northwindtraders.example high | Unknown | No | Require MFA for all users | None | Not checked |
Why we think it's break-glass: Named like one, Excluded from Conditional AccessWhat to check: No MFA method: Microsoft requires MFA for admin portals, so it may not get in; Use the .onmicrosoft.com domain so it works if a custom domain breaks | |||||
