How does Microsoft self-service password reset work?
Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) self-service password reset (SSPR) gives users the ability to change or reset their password, with no administrator or help desk involvement. If a user's account is locked or they forget their password, they can follow prompts to unblock themselves and get back to work.
Should I enable self-service password reset?
We recommend that organizations use the combined registration experience for Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication and self-service password reset (SSPR). SSPR allows users to reset their password in a secure way using the same methods they use for Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication.
How does self-service password reset writeback work in Azure Active Directory?
Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) self-service password reset (SSPR) lets users reset their passwords in the cloud. Password writeback is a feature enabled with Azure AD Connect or cloud sync that allows password changes in the cloud to be written back to an existing on-premises directory in real time.
