If you see this whilst signing into state resources (Fleet System) or Regeantal resources this is due to Microsoft's new Entra ID Protection feature.

Microsoft continually adds and updates detections in our catalog to protect organizations. These detections come from our learnings based on the analysis of trillions of signals each day from Active Directory, Microsoft Accounts, and in gaming with Xbox. This broad range of signals helps ID Protection detect risky behaviors like:

  • Anonymous IP address usage
  • Password spray attacks
  • Leaked credentials
  • and more...

During each sign-in, ID Protection runs all real-time sign-in detections generating a sign-in session risk level, indicating how likely the sign-in is compromised. Based on this risk level, policies are then applied to protect the user and the organization.

 

Remediation:

To re-mediate this you may want to change your password to something that is unique and long - at least 15 characters. Don't use the same password for all your services!

If that does not work then please contact the Support Desk for assistance.
