Instructions for Setting Up MFA
Install Microsoft Authenticator
Here at ENMU-Roswell, we use Microsoft Authenticator for easy, secure sign-ins for all your online accounts using multi-factor authentication. You also have additional account management options for your Microsoft work or school accounts, including a more reliable self-service password reset feature.
Watch Out For...
In both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, you may encounter an app that looks very similar to the Microsoft Authenticator at the top of your search results. This is an Ad for the ‘Authenticator App’ which is not what you need. Please choose the app that says ‘Microsoft Authenticator’ and is published by the Microsoft Corporation.
Easier yet, just scan one of the two QR Codes above to install the app.
