You can use Intune together with Microsoft Entra Conditional Access policies to require multifactor authentication (MFA) during device enrollment. If you require MFA, employees and students wanting to enroll devices must first authenticate with a second device and two forms of credentials. MFA requires them to authenticate using two or more of these verification methods:
- Something they know, such as a password or PIN.
- Something they have that can't be duplicated, such as a trusted device or phone.
- Something they are, such as a fingerprint.
To implement this policy, you must assign Microsoft Entra ID P1 or later to users.
Complete these steps to enable multi-factor authentication during Microsoft Intune enrollment.
Important
Don't configure Device based access rules for Microsoft Intune enrollment.
-
Sign in to the Microsoft Intune admin center.
-
Go to Devices > Conditional Access. This area is the same as the Conditional Access area available in the Microsoft Entra admin center. For more information about the available settings, see Building a Conditional Access policy.
-
Choose Create new policy.
-
Name your policy.
-
Select the Users category.
- Under the Include tab, choose Select users or groups.
- Additional options appear. Select Users and groups. A list of users and groups opens.
- Add the users or groups you're assigning the policy to, and then choose Select.
- To exclude users or groups from the policy, select the Exclude tab and add those users or groups like you did in the previous step.
-
Select the next category, Target resources.
- Select the Include tab.
- Choose Select apps > Select.
- Choose Microsoft Intune Enrollment > Select to add the app. Use the search bar in the app picker to find the app.

Note
A second device is required to complete the MFA challenge for these types of corporate-owned devices:
- Android Enterprise fully managed devices
- Android Enterprise corporate-owned devices with a work profile
- iOS/iPadOS devices enrolled via Apple automated device enrollment
- macOS devices enrolled via Apple automated device enrollment
The second device is required because the primary device can't receive calls or text messages during the provisioning process.
