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.

Once you have registered, the Microsoft Authenticator application on your personal mobile device will prompt you for approval when accessing IH systems remotely.
