 ## Description
 
-As an Azure AD admin responsible for managing applications, you want to use the Azure AD security features with your third party apps. Integrating these apps into Azure AD enables:
-
-- You to use one unified method to manage access to your third party apps.
-- Your users to benefit from using single sign-on to access all your apps with a single password.

 MFA enables you to enhance the security posture of your tenant. While enabling MFA is a good practice, you should try to keep the number of MFA prompts your users have to go through at a minimum. One option you have to accomplish this goal is to **allow users to remember multi-factor authentication on devices they trust**.

+This article covers the recommendation to convert per-user Multi-factor authentication (MFA) accounts to Conditional Access (CA) MFA accounts. 
 
 ## Description
 
-As an admin, you want to maintain security for my company’s resources, but you also want your employees to easily access resources as needed.
-
-Multi-factor authentication (MFA) enables you to enhance the security posture of your tenant. In your tenant, you can enable MFA on a per-user basis. In this scenario, your users perform MFA each time they sign in (with some exceptions, such as when they sign in from trusted IP addresses or when the remember MFA on trusted devices feature is turned on). 
-
-While enabling MFA is a good practice, you can reduce the number of times your users are prompted for MFA by converting per-user MFA to MFA based on conditional access.

+This recommendation improves your user's productivity and minimizes the sign-in time with fewer MFA prompts. CA and MFA used together help ensure that your most sensitive resources can have the tightest controls, while your least sensitive resources can be more freely accessible.
 
 ## Action plan
 
-1. To get started, confirm that there's an existing conditional access policy with an MFA requirement. Ensure that you're covering all resources and users you would like to secure with MFA. Review your [conditional access policies](https://portal.azure.com/?Microsoft_AAD_IAM_enableAadvisorFeaturePreview=true&amp%3BMicrosoft_AAD_IAM_enableAadvisorFeature=true#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/PoliciesTemplateBlade).
