Digital security is critical in today's world because both businesses and users store sensitive information online. Everyone interacts with applications, services, and data that are stored on the internet using online accounts. A breach, or misuse, of this online information could have serious real-world consequences, such as financial theft, business disruption, and loss of privacy.
While passwords protect digital assets, they are simply not enough. Expert cybercriminals try to actively find passwords. By discovering one password, access can potentially be gained to multiple accounts for which you might have reused the password. Multi-factor authentication acts as an additional layer of security to prevent unauthorized users from accessing these accounts, even when the password has been stolen. Businesses use multi-factor authentication to validate user identities and provide quick and convenient access to authorized users.

We will setup the Verification Code first. This method requires an Authentication App installed on your phone. There are browser apps that will work; however you will need to have the browser app to log in to the site on a portable device so they are NOT recommeneded.
This is required by the TOH for multi-factor authentication, please use this app if you are employed by the RPPEO (TOH).
If you are not required to use the Microsoft Authenticator app this is another supported option.
From the MFA options listed under your profile verify that Verification by email is not enabled, then click add new verification code.
