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. ...
Software token = MS authenticator or equivalent mobile app
- looking for 3rd party authenticator app, it should not open source
Except MS authenticator because users are not allowing to user mobile phonesathiyatam26 luvsql
Has anyone found a solution for this problem? I am an employee and want to access MFA, but I seek to do so without using a personal cell phone.- Yes, I have found a solution. I only use a PC and not a tracking device like a dumb (s.m.a.r.t.) phone. Just recently our Company initiated the Microsoft Authenticator. As if the Text or Phone call wasn't enough (sarcasm). My Company would not allow IT to circumvent certain Users, like myself, to use Outlook and the rest as it was previously.
Since I use the PC I searched for a viable way to keep my rights and not tie business things to a personal mobile phone.
IF anyone is interested in this Microsoft Authenticator to PC, then let me know.
Danny69 Except that both come back to being tied to a mobile device versus other software authentication, which defeats the point of the conversation.
