Factor Communication Options |
...
EmpowerID supports several one-time password delivery types, also known as Multi-Factor Communication options or Communication Types, from which users can choose for receiving verification codes when performing multi-factor authentication. Communication options include email, SMS and voice call. When users enroll for—and subsequently use—a multi-factor authentication method that requires verification codes, they select their preferred multi-factor communication option for receiving the code. Initially, users select one option, but can later add any other supported options to their profile pages. As an administrator you can configure which communication types are available by disabling those your organization chooses to not support.

SMS and voice call require your organization have a Twilio account that has been integrated with EmpowerID. For information on integrating Twilio with EmpowerID, see Integrating Twilio. |
