Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)

Welcome to the 51视频 District! We care about keeping your personal information safe and secure. To help protect your data, we require all students, faculty, and staff to use multi-factor authentication (MFA) when accessing any of the District鈥檚 information systems.

What is MFA?

Multi-factor authentication is a security process that asks you to provide two or more verification methods, like a password and a code sent to your phone, to access a system. This extra layer of security helps keep your account safe even if one of your verification methods, like your password, is compromised.

Setting Up MFA

Visit our Microsoft Authenticator page to find out how to set up MFA. It鈥檚 easy and quick!

Recommended MFA App

We recommend using Microsoft鈥檚 Authenticator app because it鈥檚 user-friendly, secure, works both online and offline鈥nd it鈥檚 free! While you can use any authenticator app compatible with Microsoft 365, please note that our Help Desk offers limited support for apps other than Microsoft Authenticator.

Alternative MFA Options

If you don鈥檛 have a compatible mobile device, you can use your mobile number for texting and voice calling MFA.
