Microsoft Authenticator is a reliable tool for enhancing the security of your online accounts. It offers convenient and secure sign-ins through multi-factor authentication, passwordless options, and password autofill. Additionally, it provides efficient account management options for Microsoft personal, work, or school accounts.
Getting started with multi-factor authentication
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds an extra layer of security to your login process. Once enabled, after entering your password, you'll be prompted to provide additional proof of identity. You can either approve the notification sent to Microsoft Authenticator or enter the one-time password (OTP) generated by the app. The OTP codes have a 30-second countdown timer to ensure that you never reuse the same time-based one-time password (TOTP). This feature eliminates the need to remember specific numbers. Moreover, the OTP doesn't require an internet connection and won't drain your device's battery. The app allows you to add multiple accounts, including non-Microsoft ones like Facebook, Amazon, Dropbox, Google, LinkedIn, GitHub, among others.
Getting started with passwordless
With Microsoft Authenticator, you can bypass the need for passwords and use your phone as a secure login tool for your Microsoft account. Simply enter your username and approve the notification sent to your phone. Your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN will act as a second layer of security in this two-step verification process. Once you've completed this process, you'll have seamless access to all Microsoft products and services such as Outlook, OneDrive, Office, and more.
Getting started with autofill
Microsoft Authenticator not only enhances security but also streamlines the log-in experience by offering password autofill capabilities. By signing in on the Passwords tab within the Authenticator app using your personal Microsoft account, your passwords, including those saved in Microsoft Edge, can sync and autofill. You can set Microsoft Authenticator as the default autofill provider, enabling you to conveniently autofill passwords for apps and sites on your mobile device. All your passwords are protected with multi-factor authentication within the app. Accessing and autofilling passwords on your mobile device requires verification through your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN. Additionally, you have the option to import passwords from Google Chrome and other password managers.
Microsoft personal, work, or school accounts
In some cases, your workplace or educational institution may require you to install Microsoft Authenticator to access specific organizational resources. To do so, you'll need to register your device through the app and add your work or school account. Microsoft Authenticator supports certificate-based authentication by issuing a certificate on your device. This feature allows your organization to verify that the sign-in request is coming from a trusted device, ensuring seamless and secure access to additional Microsoft apps and services without the need for repeated logins.
