Scheduled

On Friday 09 September, we’re enabling modern authentication for Office 365 on iOS, during which time the service will be available but at risk.

Once modern authentication has been enabled, iOS- based Outlook clients that support modern authentication will be prompted to log in again.

Enabling modern authentication paves the way for stronger security by utilising enhanced authentication features. iOS users will no longer need to enter credentials into Office to connect to Office 365. Modern Authentication will use the OATH2 to authenticate to ADFS on the client’s behalf and will SSO the user.

While we don't expect any issues, sometimes unexpected things happen. We'll update this post with progress.
