Migrate to the Authentication methods policy in Azure Active Directory by September 30, 2025

From Microsoft 365 Message Center Archive by Merill Fernando · Microsoft may not have sent this notice to your tenant.

What the notice says

Microsoft’s text, safely structured

On September 30th, 2025 we will be retiring the ability to manage authentication methods in the legacy Multifactor Authentication (MFA) and Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) policies in Entra ID. Organizations should migrate their methods to the converged authentication methods policy where methods can be managed centrally for all authentication scenarios including passwordless, multi-factor authentication and self-service password reset.

When this will happen

Note: The date, September 30th, 2025, is an update from the previously communicated retirement date of September 30th, 2024.

What you can do to prepare

Organizations can migrate their authentication methods manually by following the steps outlined in: How to migrate MFA and SSPR policy settings to the Authentication methods policy for Azure AD.
