| **IA-7 Cryptographic Module Authentication**<br>The information system implements mechanisms for authentication to a cryptographic module that meet the requirements of applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance for such authentication. | **Implement mechanisms for authentication to a cryptographic module that meets applicable federal laws.**<p>The FedRAMP High Impact level requires the AAL3 authenticator. All authenticators supported by Azure AD at AAL3 provide mechanisms to authenticate operator access to the module as required. For example, in a Windows Hello for Business deployment with hardware TPM, configure the level of TPM owner authorization.<p> Resources<br><li>For more information, see IA-02 (2 and 4).<br> <li>[Achieving NIST authenticator assurance levels with the Microsoft identity platform](nist-overview.md) <br> <li>[TPM Group Policy settings](/windows/security/information-protection/tpm/trusted-platform-module-services-group-policy-settings) |
