1. What is two-factor authentication?

Two-factor Authentication, also known as Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) or multi-step

verification, adds another layer of security, supplementing the username and password model

with a code that only a specific user has access to (typically sent to something they have

immediately to hand). This authentication method can be easily summed up as a combination of

"something you have and something you know”.

Bane NOR requires two-factor authentication using eg. Office 365 and Citrix, when you log on

from other PCs than a Bane NOR computer, or when you log on from a mobile phone.

It is recommended to use two-factor authentication via the Microsoft Authenticator app. See

below for setup on both app and SMS.

2. Set up two-factor authentication when imposed

A policy is introduced that requires everyone to register for two-factor authentication. If you sign in to

Office 365 and get the following message, it is because you are hit by the policy:

You can postpone the registration of two-factor authentication for up to 14 days, or do so now. To

setup two factor now, click Next, and then you can follow further instructions in either Setting up two-

factor authentication via app or Setting up two-factor authentication via SMS.
