Entra ID Allows Users to Change Passwords Without Knowing Their Old Password

Change password without the original password in Entra ID

Now rolling out to Entra tenants is the ability to configure the change password method for user accounts through the My Sign Ins page without knowing the original password. Although many Entra users are going passwordless, that approach only works when applications support passkeys. The need to update someone’s password to allow them to access an application still exists, and the new method allows the user to do it themselves even when they can’t remember their original password.

Helping Office 365 Users Access Azure Active Directory MySign-Ins

Azure Active Directory now features the public preview of the My Sign-Ins feature, which allows users to see where their sign-ins originate and what applications are used to sign-in. It’s a nice idea but Office 365 users are unlikely to find the page. We can help by creating a custom tile with a link to the My Sign-Ins page. The tile appears in the Office 365 apps menu and makes it easy for people to access their sign-in data.
