So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s demonstrably safer? Or is this a battle I can pick to shield myself a little from MS?

    You don’t even need to disable an ex-employee’s ability to generate TOTP codes… Once the account is disabled what use are the codes?

      Well that’s a bit of the point of my post… why are you making it out like disabling the 2fa app matters?
