Day in brief

Authenticator passkey restore gets guided iOS migration while TLS inspection gains managed-cert guidance

Microsoft Entra’s most user-visible update is a worldwide mid-September 2026 improvement to restoring Authenticator passkeys on iOS: users with iCloud backup get a clearer, guided device-migration flow, with no policy change or administrator action required. Global Secure Access also adds a new preview guide for Microsoft-managed certificates in Microsoft Entra Internet Access TLS inspection, alongside clarified bring-your-own-certificate instructions. The remaining updates are primarily documentation maintenance, troubleshooting guidance, and link or download-target changes.

  • The Microsoft Authenticator passkey restore experience will launch worldwide in mid-September 2026 with a clearer, guided device-migration flow for iOS users with iCloud backup. No user action, administrator action, or policy change is specified.

  • The new guide covers creating a tenant-specific Microsoft-managed root CA, deploying its public certificate to client devices, and enabling it for Microsoft Entra Internet Access TLS inspection. The private key remains protected by Microsoft, and the capability is in preview.

  • The updated guide focuses on using an administrator-provided certificate authority, including CSR creation, PKI signing, and certificate upload, and links to the separate Microsoft-managed certificate guidance.

    App-access troubleshooting adds a session-persistence step

    After confirming that an application works through a single connector, the guide now recommends enabling session persistence so the same user and device remain routed through that connector during the session.

  • The roadmap now links to download ID 108777 for both the AD FS and AD DS Connect Health agents, replacing download ID 108565.
