PCCC Recommends registering multiple methods of authentication including a Cell phone, Office phone, Home phone and the Microsoft Authenticator App. You must have access to one of these methods when you sign in.
Use your office or cell phone to receive notifications to verify your identity when prompted for Multifactor Authentication.
Step 1. Add your account to the app
On your desktop, visit https://aka.ms/mysecurityinfo
Select Add Method > Phone
Step 2 Type in your phone number and verify by having Microsoft Text or Call you
Step 3. Verify your phone
If you chose text me a code, you will receive a code to type in to verify the phone number
If you have chosen call me, you will receive a call from 973-684-6464. Answer the phone and push # to verify when prompted
Step 4 Set your default sign-in method
To ensure that you are prompted to sign-in using your authentication of choice click the change link next to Default sign-in method
Select your preferred method of authentication
You should add additional methods of authentication such as your cell phone, home phone, office phone personal email, or the Microsoft Authenticator App
Congratulations! You are now setup with the Multifactor Authentication
