Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Requirement
If working remotely and not connected to VPN (Netmotion for DSP Staff), Microsoft will prompt you to login, and
then send a notification through the Microsoft Authenticator app on your phone or PC. Microsoft MFA will
remember you on most devices for about 60 days. Anytime you change your password, you will be prompted to
authenticate again.
In general, if you access Office 365 while not connected to the state's network, you will be prompted for MFA when:
You first login
Your session times out
You change your Office 365 security settings
You reset your IAM password
Once you have enrolled, you will not be prompted to authenticate your identity when your computer is connected to
the State of Wisconsin network. Nonetheless, by enrolling, MFA will be able to prevent unauthorized access to your
account.
Installing and using the Microsoft Authenticator on your personal device for identification requests will NOT
create records subject to open records requests or records retention requirements. Using a personal device in
other ways to conduct state business may create public records, but the Microsoft Authenticator app itself will
not.
We suggest users only use one method of multi-factor authentication. If setup on a cell phone there is no need
to set it up on a PC and vice versa.
