What you need to know: Multi-Factor Authentication or MFA works by authenticating you in multiple ways to prove that you are the genuine account owner.

PREREQUISITE: You will need to have the free Microsoft Authenticator app installed on your mobile device prior to performing the steps outlined in this document. The Microsoft Authenticator App is the only authenticator app that we are supporting; however, you can use another authenticator of your choosing.
