Multi-Factor Authentication

Multi-factor authentication is an easy way to protect your Microsoft 365 email and calendaring service. Sometimes known as two-step verification, multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds an extra layer of protection to help prevent hackers from accessing your email and account — even if they have your password. McMaster / Microsoft 365 MFA is available for all members of the McMaster community for their MacID account.

  • Easy to setup and easy to use
  • Peace of mind knowing that your account has an additional layer of protection
  • Use the Microsoft Authenticator App to protect your personal online accounts and as a password manager
