Lab 3 Working with Identity

Azure Active Directory is a service that provides identity and access management capabilities in the cloud. In much the same way that Active Directory is a service made available to customers through the Windows Server operating system for on-premises identity management, Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) is a service that is made available through Azure for cloud-based identity management. Azure AD can be used as a standalone cloud directory for your organization, but you can also integrate existing on-premises Active Directory with Azure AD. Some of the features of integration include directory sync, password sync and single sign-on, which further extend the reach of your existing on-premises identities into the cloud for an improved admin and end user experience.

Implementing Multi-Factor Authentication

Multi-factor or two-factor authentication is a method of authentication that requires the use of more than one verification method and adds a critical second layer of security to user sign-ins and transactions. It works by requiring any two or more of the following verification methods:

• Something you know (typically a password)
• Something you have (a trusted device that is not easily duplicated, like a phone)
• Something you are (biometrics)

The security of multi-factor authentication lies in its layered approach. Compromising multiple authentication factors presents a significant challenge for attackers. Even if an attacker manages to learn the user’s password, it is useless without also having possession of the trusted device. Conversely, if the user happens to lose the device, the finder of that device won’t be able to use it unless he or she also knows the user’s password. Azure Multi-Factor Authentication is the multi-factor authentication service that requires users to also verify sign-ins using a mobile app, phone call or text message. It is available to use with Azure Active Directory, to secure on-premise resources with the Azure Multi-Factor Authentication Server, and with custom applications and directories using the SDK.

In this task, you will configure Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) with Microsoft Azure. To complete this module fully, you need to have a phone which can send and receive text messages or calls. You will configure this lab to use your phone as a second authentication factor this is done via replying to a system-generated text or voice message.

We will start by enabling the MFA service

1. Using Internet Explorer, navigate to manage.windowsazure.com.
2. Log on using your tenant account.
3. In Microsoft Azure, click ACTIVE DIRECTORY.
4. Click MULTI-FACTOR AUTH PROVIDERS, and then click CREATE A NEW MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION PROVIDER.
5. In NAME, type Contoso-MFA, ensure the correct subscription is selected (If you have multiple subscriptions tied to your live ID).
6. For directory select Contoso-AZ-Directory and then click CREATE.

Testing Multi-Factor Authentication

In this task, you will test multi-factor authentication. Ensure you have the phone readily available as you will have a limited time to receive and reply to the text message generated by Microsoft Azure.

Perform this task on your local machine.

1. In the Microsoft Azure active directory portal click directory and click Contoso-AZ-Directory.
2. On the top bar click Configure
3. Under the multi-factor authentication section click Manage Service Settings
4. If prompted enter your tenant credentials
5. In multi-factor authentication click users on the top navigation bar.
6. Select the User you created earlier and click Enable under quick steps
7. On the information screen, review the message and click enable multi-factor auth.
8. Click Close
9. Open a new tab in Internet Explorer and navigate to http://aka.ms/MFASetup Note: If you are signed in, sign out to continue
