The Microsoft authenticator app that we know and love has been around for some time now and it gives us an additional layer of security to Azure AD working school accounts and our Microsoft accounts. When using the app it allows users to authenticate in a passwordless way when signing in but also as an additional layer of verification to SSPR or self-service password reset and also during an Azure AD mfa event.

The big news though is that Microsoft have now gone one step further with their latest release and have introduced some new security features for iOS and Android devices which includes 1 - The number matching experience with push notifications 2 - Additional context to authentication where it gives you information about the app and location the person is logging in from.
Example of Number matching 

In Bitesize episode #3 I demonstrate how to set up Temporary access pass  (TAP) withMicrosoft Intune and discuss the features with @Dean_Ellerby as part of our GetModern series. Please refer to my recent blogpost on the topic for additional information. Move2Modern - MOVE2MODERN.CO.UK (weebly.com) 

If you're like me you may have seen a few blog posts coming out around Temporary Access Pass or TAP recently. Anything around passwords grabs my attention so thought this would be a good opportunity to find out a bit more about it. As I work within the Modern desktop area I wanted to add a slightly different view of this and see how it integrates with Microsoft Endpoint Manager (MEM).
