MFA combine Windows Hello for Business with Microsoft Authenticator App

Hardloper123 296

Hello,

Within our organization we would like to roll out MFA on Windows 10 devices using the Microsoft Authenticator App.
We have been using DUO on a number of devices for years, which works fine, but is a third party.
Conditional Access rules have been created for Microsoft Cloud apps where MFA is included through Microsoft Authenticator App.

Question, is it possible to combine Windows Hello for Business with Microsoft Authenticator App so that you are logged in with MFA at all times?
If that is not possible what are other possibilities using Microsoft Authenticator App?

Thanks in advance!

@Hardloper123 Apologies for the delay on this. At present you cannot combine Windows hello for business with MS auth app for windows login.

This is a very important requirement to allow sign with MS Authenticator into Windows 10 and 11 machines and make user experience seamless and password less.
Windows Hello alone has a lot of technical issues with biometrics and not easy to enroll for enterprise customers. Additionally many users do not want their personal data collected in any shape or form and PIN alone is not as secure as adding another factor.

Any update on this and allowing MS Authenticator to work with Windows 10 or 11 as part of Windows Hello for Business

Any updates on this, it would be a very helpful feature, plus the ability to use it of UAC prompted changes requiring an admin account.

@VipulSparsh-MSFT

Is the Microsoft Authenticator app able to be used as the passwordless login method for Windows login (i.e. like a FIDO2 security key) on an Azure AD-joined, Intune MEM-managed laptop?
