Wrong language in Entra ID Identity Secure Score

Microsoft provides an Entra ID Identity Secure Score with recommendations to improve the score. The Identity Secure Score will also be enhanced with additional recommendations, as stated in a recent announcement.

Depending on the language settings in Entra ID, languages are mixed. The portal is in English, while the recommendations are in German.

Falsche Sprache von Empfehlungen
Wrong language of recommendations

The cause is the language configuration in the Entra ID portal. To check your configuration, open the settings menu at the top right and select Language + region.
In my opinion, Microsoft has linked the recommendations to the wrong property. Recommendations are based on the regional format rather than the language.

Empfehlungen übernehmen Sprache aus regionalem Format
Recommendations use the language from regional format

Change the regional format to English. The recommendations are now also in English.
By the way, the language situation in the old and new versions of Identity Secure Score is the same. It is wrong in both places.
