Delegation of rights in Azure MFA
Azure administrators need to have Global Administrator role to work with MFA, particularly to import and activate OATH tokens. Sometimes they want to delegate this task to service desk team, but to achieve this they need to delegate GA rights too. In this article, we would like to talk about a couple of solutions that would be usefull for administrators in managing MFA.

TOTPRadius : Azure AD Proxy mode
The LDAP proxy mode of TOTPRadius was introduced as a workaround for implementing 2FA access for systems without native support for multiple authentication sources. This works perfectly fine for organizations with full on-premises or hybrid Active Directory implementations where domain controllers can be accessed over the local network directly using LDAP protocol. But we are discovering more and more organizations moving to full cloud Azure AD implementation while keeping some services, such as VPN, on-premises. As the LDAP interface of Azure AD is not accessible directly, it was not possible to configure TOTPRadius to use Azure AD as its authentication source.

How to transfer TOTP profiles from Authy to a Token2 hardware token
Authy remains one of the most popular TOTP application used for 2FA due to its user-friendly features, such as centralized backup. As this feature is based on phone numbers (Authy uses your mobile phone number to identify or reset your account), which may be vulnerable to sim-swap attacks, some users may want to migrate from Authy to hardware tokens. Or, alternatively, users may need to clone/backup their existing TOTP profiles to hardware tokens.

Hardware tokens for PPTP VPN on Windows Server using TOTPRadius
TOTPRadius can be used if you need to have hardware tokens as the second factor for two-factor authentication with Windows Server based PPTP VPN. You can enroll the same tokens as with Azure MFA, so your users can use the same hardware token for both Office 365 and VPN Access. The guide below explains how you can integrate TOTPRadius with Windows Server to achieve this.

Azure AD - Protecting user accounts with FIDO2 keys without MFA requirement
FIDO2 keys as a security method is available with Microsoft Azure AD for already a couple of years now. Being the most secure access method available for Office 365 user access, enrolling FIDO2 security keys had a requirement of MFA to be configured for the users, which made it useless for use cases where users do not have (or do not want) to use multiple devices to log in. This has finally changed!
