Filtering will only show you successful sign-in attempts that were made by the selected legacy authentication protocols. Clicking on each individual sign-in attempt will show you additional details. The Client App column or the Client App field under the Basic Info tab after selecting an individual row of data will indicate which legacy authentication protocol was used.

These logs will indicate which users are still depending on legacy authentication and which applications are using legacy protocols to make authentication requests. For users that do not appear in these logs and are confirmed to not be using legacy authentication, implement a Conditional Access policy or enable the Baseline policy: block legacy authentication for these users only.

1. Check to see if your directory already supports modern authentication by running `Get-CsOAuthConfiguration` from the [Skype for Business Online PowerShell module](https://docs.microsoft.com/office365/enterprise/powershell/manage-skype-for-business-online-with-office-365-powershell).

Be sure to complete this step before moving forward. Its critical that your directory configurations are changed first because they dictate which protocol will be used by all Office clients. Even if youre using Office clients that support modern authentication, they will default to using legacy protocols if modern authentication is disabled on your directory.

Once you have enabled modern authentication in your directory, you can start updating applications by enabling modern authentication for Office clients. Office 2016 or later clients support modern authentication by default. No extra steps are required.

If you are using Office 2013 Windows clients or older, we recommend upgrading to Office 2016 or later. Even after completing the prior step of enabling modern authentication in your directory, the older Office applications will continue to use legacy authentication protocols. If you are using Office 2013 clients and are unable to immediately upgrade to Office 2016 or later, follow the steps in the following article to [Enable Modern Authentication for Office 2013 on Windows devices](https://docs.microsoft.com/office365/admin/security-and-compliance/enable-modern-authentication). To help protect your account while youre using legacy authentication, we recommend using strong passwords across your directory. Check out [Azure AD password protection](../authentication/concept-password-ban-bad.md) to ban weak passwords across your directory.
