As we continue to enable enhanced identity scenarios, you can keep track of our progress below. Here\u2019s a summary of the updates:<\/p>\n Modern authentication brings Active Directory Authentication Library (ADAL)-based sign-in to Office client apps across platforms.\u00a0This enables sign-in features such as Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), SAML-based third-party Identity Providers with Office client applications, smart card and certificate-based authentication, and it removes the need for Outlook to use the basic authentication protocol.\u00a0The chart below shows the availability of modern authentication across Office applications.<\/p>\n
