Better Descriptions for controls
I love the setup of "Why does it matter?", "What will change?" for the current controls. However, some of the items do not make sense to me: Microsoft Authenticator is configured to protect against MFA fatigue: This one calls out having users being able to report suspicious activity, however, that action only makes a user account "risky" to Microsoft, which only matters if "Risk" Conditional access or rules are in place. Why include that if it does functionally nothing? Ensure organizational terms have been added to the banned password list: This is an odd one, as it really only trims out the company name (unless you somehow get the client to share a list of common terms for the company, good luck with that). With MFA in place, does this make a functional difference for attackers? Non administrative users should be prevented from retrieving BitLocker keys: Not gonna lie, I am just curious for the story behind this one. I want to know the event you all saw where an attacker gained access to a user account, grabbed the Bitlocker Key, stole that device and then did bad things with the data. That sounds like some James Bond stuff. Easy control to implement, just why would you think of it? A dynamic group for guest users is created: Why does this matter? The control states its for organizational purposes, but CAP has controls for Guest users already. So what is the actual value here? This seems fully redundant to me. System-preferred multifactor authentication is turned on: From my understanding, this just means enforcing MS Authenticator. As that is the ONLY supported "System-Preferred MFA". Why not have a different control here? such as one that tracks what the WEAKEST available MFA method for the client is? and make it non-compliant if it is not phishing resistant? Ensure 'Per-user MFA' is turned off: This is oddly named. Why call out "per user MFA must be off?" When you have controls for Security Defaults/CAP. Seems redundant. What is the value here? I am not the smartest man, so I am probably missing something here. Overall it would be cool if your controls had a "Why we recommend doing this" tab, that explained "oh this would have stopped x incident, or we see y attackers using this technique that would be stopped by this".
