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. ...
This is an interesting topic. Previously, I didn't think twice about using a cell phone for MFA but it makes sense that asking employees to use personal devices for work is not always acceptable. I created a couple videos, one on MFA with an OATH token. This is an alternative to the Microsoft Authenticator app.

I did another on FIDO2 keys for passwordless authentication.

- Awesome video thank you. If a user needs to access their email or access a SharePoint site on tablet that does not have a USB connection, will they just connect the yubikey to their work laptop and will they be shown the code so that they can type it in on the other device?
- The Yubikey is NFC capable, so if the device supports NFC, the Yubico authenticator app on the device can get the code without USB.
- Most of our laptops are not NFC enabled and most of the Samsung tablets also are not. If this is the case, I assume no one will be able to add any Microsoft services that require MFA authentication onto any devices unless it's NFC or has a USB-A input?
And my assumption also is that the code does not get shown to the user on the screen for them to type in? If it did, that's our solution.
