Information Technology is sharing an additional method for authenticating to your 泡芙短视频 Microsoft Account with MFA.

Passwordless authentication populates a 2-digit number in your browser to enter into the Microsoft Authenticator app. You only need to enter your email and the code so your password stays out of the authentication process. This method further increases security on your account and limits how cyber threats can infiltrate your account. The Authenticator app currently offers texted codes and push notifications, but Passwordless is the most efficient MFA setting for your authentication needs.

The Microsoft Authenticator app  must be setup on your mobile device for 泡芙短视频 Microsoft MFA, and the App must be set as your default authentication method from your Microsoft Sign-Ins page.

If you have not installed the MFA Authenticator app, follow the instructions below with your 泡芙短视频 email account. Do not download any other Authenticator Apps in the store other than the links from the article below.

If your current MFA primary method is a phone-call code, texted code, or method other than the Authenticator app, switch to the Microsoft Authenticator app by going to the following and update your default method to the app.

Once the Microsoft Authenticator app has been installed as your primary sign-in method, you can continue setting up Passwordless Authentication with the following instructions.
