Explanation

Because authentication starts with the third-party IdP, you must ensure 2SV is enforced either at the IdP or within Cloud Identity - choosing the option that provides the most secure and compliant 2SV for Super admins. This avoids gaps that could occur if only one system enforced it or if the third-party IdP lacks strong 2SV options.
