sspr password reset

The SSPR password reset tag on WindowsForum.com covers Microsoft Entra ID self-service password reset, including upcoming policy changes. A key discussion focuses on Microsoft's announcement that from September 7, 2026, SSPR will only accept explicitly registered authentication methods, closing a security gap where directory contact data could be used for recovery. This change requires users to register trusted methods via a campaign starting July 6, 2026. The tag explores the security benefits and potential help-desk challenges for tenants that previously relied on existing phone numbers or emails. Topics include authentication methods, registration requirements, and enterprise IT implications for Windows and Microsoft environments.
