Emergency access users should not be blocked

Why This Matters

Emergency access accounts are critical break-glass accounts designed for use in crisis situations when normal administrative access fails. If these accounts are mistakenly blocked by a conditional access policy, your organization could lose access to its entire Microsoft 365 environment during an emergency, leading to extended downtime and potential data loss.

What Aether365 Checks

This check verifies that no conditional access policy is blocking your designated emergency access users. It appears in the Aether365 dashboard under the microsoft-365 checks section.
