MFA without a Cellphone
This is becoming a bigger issue more and more. We cannot, as a company, require our Employees to use a personal cellphone to get text codes or install work apps to authenticate our work accounts. ...
How do you receive a text without a cellphone? We cannot force our Employees to use a personal cellphone number to receive codes. There is no way to authenticate MFA to email.
pls refer to this - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/user-help/security-info-setup-email
- How does setting up a secondary email account for password resets relate to MFA? Our issue is as soon as you enable MFA on an account, you only have 2 options: Authenticator App or Mobile Phone number. You cannot enter an email address during the setup.
- AND why should an employee need to enter their private email address to access their work email.
- How about to voice call ?
