Hello, I just realized that for all new accounts, MFA activation is requested each time they connect to office applications. However, our conditional access does not require the MFA and "Default security settings" are disabled for our tenant. Older accounts are not impacted.

    That's likely the SSPR registration prompt. This thread lists all the places you should check in order to narrow down the feature causing this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/645850/what-are-the-servicessettings-that-can-cause-mfamf.html

    Hi @EDS

    Thank you for asking this question on the **Microsoft Q&A Platform. **

    Could be for other settings,

    Validate that the user does not have "Enabled" or "Force" in the MULTI-FACTOR AUTH STATUS --> https://account.activedirectory.windowsazure.com/UserManagement/MultifactorVerification.aspx?BrandContextID=O365

    Hope this helps,
