MkII Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Our management team decided to stop staff using mobile phones in classrooms. I want to enable 2 step verification in O365 for GDPR. I don't think we're ever going to go down the line of authentication key fobs or cards. Is phone verification the only other option? Staff did use plickers but the SMT are not happy with the data protection implications with that.
MkII Posted April 13, 2018 Author Posted April 13, 2018 There is the MS Authenticator app. That works on PC?
matt40k Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Nope. It's 2FA - something you know - password and something you have - like a phone. Have you looked at saying on-prem only requires a password, then offsite you require 2fa - aka a phone.

matt40k Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Pass - just remember its something you can setup when you're setting up on-prem AD sync'ing with Office365\Azure AD.
MkII Posted April 13, 2018 Author Posted April 13, 2018 Looked at the settings and can't see anything
matt40k Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Found this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/multi-factor-authentication/multi-factor-authentication-whats-next#trusted-ips 1
MkII Posted April 13, 2018 Author Posted April 13, 2018 Hmm... "The feature is available with the full version of Azure Multi-Factor Authentication, and not the free version for administrators." :'(
matt40k Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 £1 per month - before education discount... not too bad... still it is per user :'( Still I suspect that education discount will really help 1
Zoom7000 Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 There is the MS Authenticator app. That's not going to work if the staff aren't allowed to use their mobiles in class. It will only work if each member of staff has their own tablet device like an iPad.
Arthur Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 It will only work if each member of staff has their own tablet device like an iPad. What if it's a tablet or 2-in-1 device with a 3G/4G sim card? Would that be classed as a "phone" even though it isn't?
matt40k Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 Does it run a mobile OS or a desktop OS smart arse

Staff did use plickers but the SMT are not happy with the data protection implications with that. Just been to the Plickers website, never heard of it before now. Had to laugh at the strap line:- [h=1] "Tailor instruction with instant feedback Use Plickers for quick checks for understanding to know whether your students are understanding big concepts and mastering key skills."[/h] Great grammar used there.

Sir Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Enable multi factor authentication in 365... free... requires entering a one time code that is displayed once... for each device used to access email. 365 helpdesk showed me the entire process yesterday while sorting out a spambot intrusion in one of my teachers account ... sending out 1000’s emails without appearing in sent and receiving almost as many ndr’s! Pm me if interested in resolution re soft and hard fail spf record and rules as it is beyond this thread topic.

DrCheese Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 Depends, Azure in cloud doesn't support hardware tokens yet for 2fa. Something like Duo security does.
Sir Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 @Sir if the user says they won't put a work-related app on their personal phone are they effectively locked out of remote access? Hi gshaw.... not currently but, yes, soon that will be the case for staff.
matt40k Posted May 2, 2018 Posted May 2, 2018 Hi gshaw.... not currently but, yes, soon that will be the case for staff. Are staff expected to work from home?
Sir Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 Are staff expected to work from home? No, staff are not required to work from home.
