Using Multiple MFA Authentication Methods
Can You Use Multiple MFA Applications?
Yes, you can use up to 3 MFA authentication applications to generate tokens.
Once registered, you dont have to do anything, just enter the token you want to use at the time.
Note: This does not work if you use the OpenOTP app. Your superuser can unregister your existing token to enable you to use multiple tokens.
How to Set Up Multiple MFA Methods
Ask a Superuser at your company to generate a self-reg link for a Secondary (or Third) token and go to your email and follow the setup process for your selected app
Benefits of Using Multiple MFA Methods
-
Flexibility: If one method is unavailable (e.g., you lose your phone or can't use a mobile device in your current location), you can use another method to access your account.
-
Convenience: Different methods can be more convenient in different situations.
