Hello
Im looking to enforce the passwordless methode instead of using the password to make the authentication.
How/ can we disable the classic method of authentication based on the password and enforce the use of passwordless ? can we do this with auth strength ?

You cannot currently disable passwords, but yes, you can use CA policies/auth strength to require passwordless, where applicable.
Hi vasil,
require or enable/deploy ?
The purpose of passwordless deployment is to protect the admins , i saw that when you enable the auth strength by passwordless , the admin is still able to type the password and make the option " connect with ms app" appeared for passwordless in the sign-in page BUT MY OBJECTIF IS TO MAKE THE AUTH BASED ON ONLY THE PASSWORDLESS
As I said above, you cannot currently disable password as auth method. Even if you configure CA policies/auth strength to require passwordless, the user can still login via other methods, and will only be denied access after auth happens.
You can set the password to some random value and never distribute it to the user, but that's not really the same thing as disabling password altogether.
how can i block authentication based on classic password method and force the use of passwordless method ? exemple when a user make an auth with password ( and he have the passwordless method deployed and displayed on the auth page) we block it and force the use of passwordless method ?? i deployed the CA auth strength and the user have the possibility to make an auth with passwordless but he can also make an auth with password : so my objectif is to block the auth based on password to enforce the use of passwordless
