Planning and Implementing Authentication
Over the course of the last few chapters, you’ve learned a lot about identity, synchronization, and sign-in methods – all part of the Microsoft 365 foundation.

We’re going to tackle authentication mechanisms and methods by covering the following topics:
- Choosing an authentication mechanism
- Configuring and managing multi-factor authentication
- Implementing and managing authentication methods
- Implementing and managing self-service password reset
- Implementing and managing Azure AD password protection
- Investigating and resolving authentication issues
By the end of this chapter, you should be able to describe the various authentication methods and supporting tools, as well as have an understanding of where to go to troubleshoot authentication...
