Non-CAC Secure Access with Multifactor Authentication (MFA)

When you log into Microsoft services, you must setup multi-factor authentication (MFA) in order to verify who you are. MFA increases security by using more than just a password to verify you.

What You Know

The additional verification information is used to prevent anyone else from getting access to your account. It also provides a means to verify who you are if you ever need to reset your own password online.

For DoDEA purposes, you will use two-factors

What You Have

1. what you know (username and password), PLUS:

2. what you have access to: your office phone, mobile

phone or the Microsoft authenticator mobile app for

Android or Apple iOS devices. This is the alternative to your common access card (CAC). DoDEA does not use

What You Are

this information for any other reason.
