In this article, we'll explain the process for setting up multi-factor authentication. 


By setting up multi-factor authentication, you add an extra layer of security to your Office 365 account. You sign in with your password and a secondary approval layer.

  • Open the Authenticator app, select the plus symbol to add an account. Select Work or school account then scan the QR code presented by the website. Select Next to continue.

  • You'll now try this out and will receive a notification prompt your the Authenticator App. Enter the code display onscreen, into the app and select Next




Once you complete the instructions, the next time you sign in to any Office 365 service, you'll be prompted to confirm the login via a notification on the Authenticator App.
