Cloud identity authentication - Users with cloud identities are authenticated using traditional challenge/response.

Federated identity authentication - Users with federated identities are authenticated using Active Directory Federation Services 2.0 or other Security Token Services.

MFA for Office 365 - users are required to acknowledge a phone call, text, or an app notification on their smartphone after correctly entering their password.

Information security policies and processes
An ISMP has been established to enable Office365 and Azure to maintain and improve its management system for information security. Through establishment of the ISMP, it plans for and protects its assets to acceptable security levels based on defined risk management processes. The ISMS framework encompasses industry best practices for information and privacy. The ISMS has been documented and communicated in a customer facing Information Security Policy, which can be made available on request. The Microsoft Cloud Security Policy is available via the Service Trust Platform aka.ms/stp

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Configuration and change management approach
Azure has developed formal standard operating procedures (SOP's)governing the change management process. The SOP's cover both software development, hardware change and release management. They are consistent with established regulatory guidelines including ISO 27001, SOC1 / SOC2, NIST 800-53 and others. Microsoft also uses Operational Security Assurance (OSA), a framework which incorporates the knowledge gained through a variety of capabilities that are unique to Microsoft. OSA combines this knowledge with the experience of running thousands of servers in datacentres throughout the world.
Vulnerability management type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Vulnerability management approach
The vendors we work with ensure this is addressed within hours, in support of the Information Security Policy, Azure runs multiple layers of security protection. Microsoft has its own Security Response Centre (MSRC) that also supplies information to all customers covering the range of MS products.
Protective monitoring type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v3.0 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
Protective monitoring approach
Microsoft Azure employs sophisticated software defined service instrumentation and monitoring that integrates at the component of server level, the datacentre edge, network backbone, internet exchange sites, and the real or simulated user level. This provides visibility of when a service disruption is occurring and pinpointing the cause.
Incident management type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v3.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402
