So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s demonstrably safer? Or is this a battle I can pick to shield myself a little from MS?

    we have o365 and while i do have the authenticator, you should also be able to add a phone number or email address for text/email codes instead of the authenticator (i know my coworker doesn’t have the authenticator but gets codes to her sms)
