**Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Process**
To fulfill the G6-required security measures, we have been tasked to implement the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Process for all users (Instructors and Cadets). Please read the step-by-step guide below to understand this feature.
There are two methods to authenticate cadets' accounts. ***The method chosen will depend on your school and district policies regarding the use of cell phones and emails.***
1. The **"Verification Code"** method using the cell phone or email will validate the account for 90 days. **This is the preferred method.**
2. The **"Class Code"** method is generated by the instructor daily. The Class Code verifies the cadet for 2-hour blocks up to 24 hours. Once the 2-hour block expires, the cadet will need to enter the Class Code and validate again. This is a backup method and used only if the "Verification Code" method can not be used.
