You open the Microsoft Entra admin center as shown in the following exhibit.

The correct answer is Require multifactor authentication for administrative roles . In the exhibit, each recommendation shows its available Secure Score points . The listed values are 1/1 for Use least privileged administrative roles , 8/8 for Do not expire passwords , 0.73/8 for Enable policy to block legacy authentication , and 0/10 for Require multifactor authentication for administrative roles . Because 10 points is the highest value among the options shown, resolving that recommendation would improve the Identity Secure Score the most.

Microsoft Learn explains that Identity Secure Score in Microsoft Entra is based on Microsoft security recommendations, and each recommendation contributes a specific number of points depending on its impact and implementation state. Recommendations related to administrator protection are especially important because privileged accounts are high-value attack targets. Microsoft also emphasizes multifactor authentication for admin roles as a core identity security best practice. Therefore, both from the screenshot and from Microsoft’s identity guidance, the recommendation with the greatest score improvement is Require multifactor authentication for administrative roles .
