How to register account with authenticator app

PURPOSE

The Microsoft Authenticator app provides an extra layer of security by requiring an additional login credential through your mobile device. Once set up, your multi-factor authentication (MFA) will require identity verification when accessing Mister Car Wash’s shared online resources such as Outlook, OneDrive, and Microsoft Teams from a new computer or network (e.g., when traveling). All employees, both in the field and at HQ, are required to set up their accounts to use MFA.
