Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Enrollment using Microsoft Authenticator App

The Microsoft Authenticator app allows you to authenticate without typing in a code sent via text or answering a phone call. All you need to do is approve the notification that is sent to the app. The app uses push notification technology in your smart phone. The following steps assume you have previously setup Multi-Factor Authentication via your phone.

  The Microsoft Authenticator App MUST be installed and opened prior to attempting to scan the QR Code.
