  3. Click the Add sign-in method button.

  4. Select the Office phone method from the list. Click Add.

     

  5. Enter your 10-digit number (no special characters. e.g., 3149898000) and extension. Click the Next button.

  6. Answer the call and follow the prompts.

  7. If you followed the prompts correctly, you will be prompted with a success screen. Click Done.

     

  8. Now you may use this MFA option when logging into your SSD account.
