Using Conditional Access and Identity Protection

Conditional Access is an Azure cloud policy tool that enforces compliance based on conditions for your users. The Conditional Access policies allow you to specify criteria against your users that will trigger specific requirements or exceptions based on the location, device platform or type, application, group membership, and much more. For example, if a user is not on a trusted device and is trying to access their email via Exchange Online, they will be required to use MFA. This is a simple example, but the possibilities of this scenario are extensive and allow increased security. Conditional Access is a necessity within the cloud world, and you need to use it. If not, prioritize and enable it immediately.
