Understand the distinction
CISA recommends moving toward phishing-resistant authentication, including FIDO/WebAuthn. A method that requires an additional factor is not necessarily resistant to a convincing fake sign-in page.
Plan a manageable rollout
Start the conversation with the accounts that can change your environment: administrators, remote-access users and email owners. Document compatible devices, recovery methods and who can approve enrollment changes.
Keep recovery in the plan
Pilot the change with a small group. Test a lost-device scenario and an employee departure before expanding it. Strong authentication does not remove the need to protect sessions, endpoints and account recovery.
