Description:
Verifies that tenant has no hybrid Global Administrator accounts.
Why:
By provisioning cloud-only Microsoft Entra ID user accounts to privileged users, the risks associated with a compromise of on-premises federation infrastructure are reduced. It is more challenging for the adversary to pivot from the compromised environment to the cloud with privileged access.
Configured: Tenant has no hybrid Global Administrator accounts.
Not Configured: Tenant has hybrid Global Administrator accounts.
Scoring: Contributes up to 1 point to the Posture Recommendations score.
