### Public Preview - Cross-tenant synchronization
37+
### General Availability - Expanding Privileged Identity Management Role Activation across the Azure portal
38+
39+
**Type:** New feature
40+
**Service category:** Privileged Identity Management
41+
**Product capability:** Privileged Identity Management
42+
43+
Privileged Identity Management (PIM) role activation has been expanded to the Billing and AD extensions in the Azure portal. Shortcuts have been added to Subscriptions (billing) and Access Control (AD) to allow users to activate PIM roles directly from these blades. From the Subscriptions blade, select **View eligible subscriptions** in the horizontal command menu to check your eligible, active, and expired assignments. From there, you can activate an eligible assignment in the same pane. In Access control (IAM) for a resource, you can now select **View my access** to see your currently active and eligible role assignments and activate directly. By integrating PIM capabilities into different Azure portal blades, this new feature allows users to gain temporary access to view or edit subscriptions and resources more easily.
44+
45+
46+
For more information Microsoft cloud settings, see: [Activate my Azure resource roles in Privileged Identity Management](../privileged-identity-management/pim-resource-roles-activate-your-roles.md).

### General Availability - Follow Azure AD best practices with recommendations
52+
53+
**Type:** New feature
54+
**Service category:** Reporting
55+
**Product capability:** Monitoring & Reporting
56+
57+
Azure AD recommendations help you improve your tenant posture by surfacing opportunities to implement best practices. On a daily basis, Azure AD analyzes the configuration of your tenant. During this analysis, Azure AD compares the data of a recommendation with the actual configuration of your tenant. If a recommendation is flagged as applicable to your tenant, the recommendation appears in the Recommendations section of the Azure AD Overview.
58+
59+
This release includes our first 3 recommendations:
60+
61+
- Convert from per-user MFA to Conditional Access MFA
62+
- Migration applications from AD FS to AAD
63+
- Minimize MFA prompts from known devices
64+
65+
66+
For more information, see:

### Public Preview - Azure AD PIM + Conditional Access integration
74+
75+
**Type:** New feature
76+
**Service category:** Privileged Identity Management
77+
**Product capability:** Privileged Identity Management
78+
79+
Now you can require users who are eligible for a role to satisfy Conditional Access policy requirements for activation: use specific authentication method enforced through Authentication Strengths, activate from Intune compliant device, comply with Terms of Use, and use 3rd party MFA and satisfy location requirements.
80+
81+

### General Availability - More information on why a sign-in was flagged as "unfamiliar"
87+
88+
**Type:** Changed feature
89+
**Service category:** Identity Protection
90+
**Product capability:** Identity Security & Protection
91+
92+
Unfamiliar sign-in properties risk detection now provides risk reasons as to which properties are unfamiliar for customers to better investigate that risk.
93+
94+
Identity Protection now surfaces the unfamiliar properties in the Azure portal on UX and in API as *Additional Info* with a user-friendly description explaining that *the following properties are unfamiliar for this sign-in of the given user*.
3895

96+
There is no additional work to enable this feature, the unfamiliar properties will be shown by default. For more information, see: [Sign-in risk](../identity-protection/concept-identity-protection-risks.md#sign-in-risk).
