Multi Factor Authentication (MFA): Text Messaging Being Retired
Starting December 23, 2024 SMS (text messaging) will no longer be supported as a multi-factor authenticator option (MFA). This means that in addition to your password, you will be required to use the Microsoft Authenticator, an authorized USB token or other third party MFA application to access your computer resources.
If you have a smart phone, the easiest way is to download and use the Microsoft Authenticator application. Its free of charge and allows for a secure login while maintaining compliance with MFA requirements. View the Quick Guide.
