Title: Authenticator Management | Multiple Information System Accounts
Ownership: Customer, Microsoft
Description: The organization implements unique smart cards to manage the risk of compromise due to individuals having accounts on multiple information systems.
Requirements: Azure uses smart cards that differentiate between different AD domains. This ensures that personnel use different authenticators when accessing the two systems and prevents an attacker from gaining access to both systems if one set of authenticators is compromised. In addition, Azure uses single-sign-on, encryption of AAD passwords that exist in the back-end and passwords utilized where smartcards are not possible via storage in Azure Key Vault, and encryption of all traffic with HTTPS, mitigating the risk of compromise.
