### Enable password self-service

We recommend a [passwordless environment](../authentication/concept-authentication-passwordless.md). Until then, you can migrate password self-service workflows from on-premises systems to Azure AD to simplify your environment. Azure AD [self-service password reset (SSPR)](../authentication/concept-sspr-howitworks.md) gives users the ability to change or reset their password, with no administrator or help desk involvement.

To enable self-service capabilities, your authentication methods must be updated to a [level that supported by self-service capabilities](../authentication/tutorial-enable-sspr.md). Once authentication methods are updated, you'll want to enable user self-service password capability for your Azure AD authentication environment.

To enable self-service capabilities, your authentication methods must be updated to a [level that supported by self-service capabilities](../authentication/tutorial-enable-sspr.md). Once authentication methods are updated, you'll want to enable user self-service password capability for your Azure AD authentication environment.

### To evaluate and pilot SSPR
38-

* Enable [combined registration (multi-factor authentication (MFA) +SSPR)](../authentication/concept-registration-mfa-sspr-combined.md) for a target group of users
40-
41-
* Deploy [SSPR](../authentication/tutorial-enable-sspr.md) for a target group of users
42-
43-
* For that group of users with Azure AD and Hybrid Azure AD joined devices (Windows devices - 7, 8, 8.1 and 10), enable [Windows password reset](../authentication/howto-sspr-windows.md) for those users.
37+
**Additional considerations include**:
4438

4539
* Deploy [Password Protection](../authentication/howto-password-ban-bad-on-premises-operations.md) in a subset of DCs with *Audit Mode* to gather information about impact of modern policies. For more guidance, see [Enable on-premises Azure Active Directory Password Protection](../authentication/howto-password-ban-bad-on-premises-operations.md).
40+
* Gradually register and enable Combined registration for [SSPR and Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication](../authentication/concept-registration-mfa-sspr-combined.md). This enables both MFA and SSPR. For example, roll out by region, subsidiary, department, etc. for all users.

**Key points:**

* Use Azure AD password policies on the domain.
54-
55-
* Go through a cycle of password change for all users to flush out weak passwords.
56-
57-
* Once the cycle is complete, implement the policy expiration time.
58-
59-
* Enable Windows 10 password reset ([Self-service password reset for Windows devices - Azure Active Directory](../authentication/howto-sspr-windows.md)) for all users

* Go through a cycle of password change for all users to flush out weak passwords.

61-
For Windows down-level devices, follow [these instructions](../authentication/howto-sspr-windows.md)
44+
* Once the cycle is complete, implement the policy expiration time.
6245

63-
* Add monitoring information like workbooks, for reset activity ([Self-service password reset reports - Azure Active Directory](../authentication/howto-sspr-reporting.md)) - Authentication Methods Insights and reporting ([Authentication Methods Activity - Azure Active Directory](../authentication/howto-authentication-methods-activity.md))
46+
* Switch the "Password Protection" configuration in the DCs that have "Audit Mode" set to [Enforced mode](../authentication/howto-password-ban-bad-on-premises-operations.md).

* For customers with Azure AD Identity Protection, enable [password reset as a control in Conditional Access policies](../identity-protection/howto-identity-protection-configure-risk-policies.md)for risky users (users marked as risky through Identity Protection). [Investigate risk Azure Active Directory Identity Protection](../identity-protection/howto-identity-protection-investigate-risk.md)
