Multi-Factor Authentication Remote Phone Setup
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is used to access IH systems when you are outside of the secure IH network.
MFA requires three types of identification:
MFA is not required when accessing systems at an IH site or while connected through VPN on an IH device.
MFA is required to access modern cloud-based applications, such as MS Teams, M365, & WFM. It is also used to enable secure remote access to IH Anywhere, IH Webmail, and i-Site.
If you are accessing any of the above systems remotely, register for MFA today.
