Aka.ms/mfasetup is a security enhancement that allows you to present at least two pieces of evidence, or factors, to identify yourself when logging into an account. It is a method of confirming your identity by using a combination of two different factors – 1) Something you know (password) and 2) something you have.
Your passwords can be easily compromised. MFA immediately increases your account security by requiring multiple forms of verification to prove your identity when signing into an application.
Approve sign-ins from a mobile app using push notifications, biometrics, or one-time passcodes. Augment or replace passwords with two-step verification and boost the security of your accounts from your mobile phone.
Sign in without a username or password using an external USB, near-field communication (NFC), or other external security key that supports Fast Identity Online (FIDO) standards in place of a password.
Automatically generate a one-time password (OTP) based on open authentication (OATH) standards from a physical device.
Use the Microsoft Authenticator app or other third-party apps to generate an OATH verification code as a second form of authentication.
Receive a code on your mobile phone via SMS or voice call to augment the security of your passwords.
