Microsoft Authenticator process used for Multifactor authentication (MFA) changes on 1 February 2023

For more secure Multifactor authentication (MFA) Aalto University will enforce number matching when Microsoft Authenticator is used from 1 February 2023 onwards.

Number matching requires you to input two numbers shown on the login screen of the service to Microsoft Authenticator鈥檚 notification. This replaces the current Approve / Deny notification in Microsoft Authenticator.

Microsoft Authenticator is the main method for MFA at Aalto University

Microsoft Authenticator is the main method that we use for MFA at Aalto University. You are most probably already using it for some of our Aalto University IT services when you log into a service outside of the Aalto University network.

For instructions on how to download Microsoft Authenticator and register to the service, see Multifactor Authentication (MFA, 2FA).
