You cannot create Conditional Access Policies to enforce MFA based on first party applications (SharePoint, Teams, Outlook). However, there is a preview feature that lets you create sensitivity labels, assign them to sites, then put MFA to that site. Here is the preview feature that will let you require MFA to just SharePoint sites: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=70594

Considering that Entrust is a third-party software, while Microsoft supports and encourages open-source software development, it does not provide technical support on Microsoft Q&A for the software from third parties. As to your question, I would suggest you contact support from Entrust.

Thanks for your understanding :-)

To use the Conditional Access Policies with the AuthenticationContext preview, I would start by understanding how it works, and what limitations there are: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/conditional-access/concept-conditional-access-cloud-apps#authentication-context-preview.

At a high level you do the following steps:

Define a Authentication Context "NOACCESS" within AzureAD

Assign that new context to all your SharePoint Sites that you want to require MFA to with this command:
Set-SPOSite -Identity <site url> -ConditionalAccessPolicy AuthenticationContext -AuthenticationContextName "NOACCESS"

Create a Conditional Access policy with the following controls:
Users -> All Users
Cloud Apps or Actions -> Authentication Context
Grant -> Grant and Require MFA
