Manage multi-factor authentication

Note

If a user's email address is associated with an enabled SSO connection in any organization, Sitecore Cloud Portal's MFA will not affect them.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) requires every user in the organization to provide two or more verification factors to log in. An additional verification factor such as a one-time password (OTP), makes unauthorized access to your organization more difficult.

When you enable or disable MFA, it affects all users who are not associated with an enabled SSO connection.

Note

To manage multi-factor authentication, you must have an Organization Admin or Organization Owner role.

  1. In the Sitecore Cloud Portal, on the menu bar, click Admin.
