Microsoft 365 for Organizations - Requirements
Disable Security Defaults
Security Defaults are a set of policies, that are enabled by default for Microsoft 365 (Office 365) accounts, to provide increased account and organizational security. These settings include using Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for logins, disabling legacy mail protocols (IMAP, POP3, and SMTP), etc.
In some cases, the Microsoft 365 administrator needs to turn off some of the Security Defaults settings in Microsoft 365 tenants.
- Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Security Administrator.
- Browse to Identity > Overview > Properties.
- Select Manage security defaults.
- Set Security defaults to Disabled.
- Select Save.
Now users will no longer be prompted to configure the MFA when signing in. If Multi-Factor Authentication is already configured for some users, you can disable it:
- Sign in to Microsoft 365 Admin Center (https://admin.microsoft.com/#/users).
- Select Users > Active Users.
- Press the Multi-factor authentication.
Find the user you want to disable MFA for, select it, and click Disable:
Go to https://admin.microsoft.com , then select Settings > Org Settings > Modern authentication;
from there you would then select the legacy protocols that you want to allow to use for email clients:
