Step seven: Now you’ll secure your account by adding phone verification to your password. There is a video at this stage which you can watch, showing the steps for how to secure your account. You can progress without watching the video by selecting Mobile app from the drop-down box, then selecting Use verification code. Next, click Setup.

Step eight: Now configure the mobile app. You will need to follow the 3 steps on screen, including downloading the app, adding a “work or school account” and scanning the QR code.

Step nine: It will then ask you to confirm the code from the Microsoft Authenticator. You will now be required to set a PIN and you will be asked to enter it twice (the PIN is unique to your device).

Note: If your company use DUO, this is not the PIN you will use to sign in with, in future. You will follow the usual steps as outlined when using DUO.

Step ten: You will be brought to your desktop which concludes the setup.
