2020

In Privileged Identity Management (PIM) for groups in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), part of Microsoft Entra, role settings define membership/ownership assignment properties: MFA and approval requirements for activation, assignment maximum duration, notification settings, etc. Use the following steps to configure role settings – i.e., setup the approval workflow to specify who can approve or deny requests to elevate privilege.

You need to have Global Administrator, Privileged Role Administrator, or group Owner permissions to manage settings for membership/ownership assignments of the group. Role settings are defined per role per group: all assignments for the same role (member/owner) for the same group follow same role settings. Role settings of one group are independent from role settings of another group. Role settings for one role (member) are independent from role settings for another role (owner).

### On activation, require multi-factor authentication

5858
You can require users who are eligible for a role to prove who they are using Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication before they can activate. Multi-factor authentication ensures that the user is who they say they are with reasonable certainty. Enforcing this option protects critical resources in situations when the user account might have been compromised.

User may not be prompted for multi-factor authentication if they authenticated with strong credential or provided multi-factor authentication earlier in this session.

You can require users who are eligible for a role to satisfy Conditional Access policy requirements: use specific authentication method enforced through Authentication Strengths, elevate the role from Intune compliant device, comply with Terms of Use, and more.

To enforce this requirement, you need to:

You can require that administrator or group owner provides multi-factor authentication when they create an active (as opposed to eligible) assignment. Privileged Identity Management can't enforce multi-factor authentication when the user uses their role assignment because they are already active in the role from the time that it is assigned.
