Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds a layer of security to online accounts by requiring more than just a password for access. A common method involves receiving a code on a registered mobile device. Circumstances may arise where the existing phone number associated with Dayforce MFA needs updating, such as when an individual changes their mobile carrier or acquires a new phone number. The process of updating this information is crucial to maintain secure and uninterrupted access to the Dayforce platform.
Maintaining accurate contact information for MFA is paramount for secure system access and data protection. When an employee’s registered phone number is outdated, it prevents them from receiving the necessary verification codes, effectively locking them out of their account. This can disrupt workflows and impede productivity. Prioritizing the timely update of MFA contact details strengthens the overall security posture of the system and minimizes potential downtime. Organizations should provide clear guidelines and readily accessible support for employees managing their MFA settings.
