I received this email from Microsoft Security

The security defaults setting for your sustainablearizona.org tenant will be turned on by January 2, 2025

I have no idea what this means. It talks about my "tenants." I didn't know I had tenants. It's a completely confusing email with no instructions for a human being. Of course, Microsoft makes it impossible to get help from anyone about this or any other issue.

    Hello,

     

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    Security defaults is security measures that Microsoft is enabling by default to enhance security which includes multifactor authentication (MFA) when logging in.

    According to the mail, security defaults will be enabled since 2nd, Jan, 2025.

    If you would like to disable it, please kindly refer to below Microsoft Official Documentation:

    REF: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/fundamentals/security-defaults#disabling-security-defaults

     

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    Best regards,

    Jill Zhou
