Strike the perfect balance between security and experience

Your team members already ‘live’ in Microsoft Teams (MS Teams). So doesn’t it make sense for them to have secure, seamless access to MFA passcodes from inside your shared MS Teams channel. 

Streamline the MFA experience and let every member of your team access business applications securely from anywhere, at anytime without slowing them down.

Eliminate Reliance on a Single Device for MFA

What happens when a team member in London needs a passcode that’s submitted to an admin’s phone in Seattle: a separation of 8 time zones?

Relying on one member of your team to accept MFA codes on their phone and manually pass these on to their team-mates can cause major login logjams that can lock out team members from corporate accounts at critical times.

Luckily, it’s not a problem when MFA codes are distributed securely to your entire team via an automatic SMS notification in your team’s trusted Microsoft Teams channel inbox. That way, every user can access MFA codes at any time and log into your business systems securely and fast.

Authenticate Across Devices and Across Locations

No matter how dispersed your team or what device they use, every channel member can access MFA codes as needed. Now they can verify their identity securely and log into your corporate resources fast.

Simple, No Fuss Deployment

Implementing MFA for your team using your Microsoft Teams channel delivers security fast in a way your team instinctively understands. They’re already familiar with MS Teams and comfortable using SMS, so adoption is effortless with no need for additional training.

Comprehensive Security

The YakChat service employs the security and protection of Microsoft Azure.  In other words, rest assured that your secure MFA codes will always stay secure. And because the codes are sent only to your private Microsoft Teams Channel inbox, no one outside of your team will be able to access the codes.

Multi-Factor Authentication using your Microsoft Teams Channel

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is critical to keeping our business systems secure. Therefore MFA generally requires a temporary authorization code to be sent to a user’s mobile phone, often by SMS. But when we work within a distributed team, how do we ensure that MFA works for us? This means that our teammates are geographically dispersed, each with their own personal cell phone, whose phone should the one-time passcode be sent to? And crucially, how do the rest of us get hold of that code quickly and safely so that we, too, can log in securely without delay?

So The answer is simple: Multi-Factor Authentication via Microsoft Teams.

MFA via MS Teams

Happily, this can be done easily with YakChat’s Bot for Microsoft Teams. The bot can be downloaded and added quickly to your private team channels (or groups) within MS Teams. The bot has a dedicated SMS number so it can receive MFA passcodes from any application. It then shares these securely with your teammates via your private team channel. This means that regardless of where your teammates are located, or on what device they are working, they can all access the passcode swiftly, verify their identity, and log in securely to your corporate resources. But importantly, no one outside of your private team will be able to see or access the codes.

Whether your dispersed team is in Support, Marketing, or Sales, the YakChat Bot eliminates those frustrating MFA login logjams. By enabling MFA through MS Teams, the YakChat Bot removes the need for any one person in your team to be responsible for receiving passcodes and for passing these on to their teammates manually. This creates a simpler, more streamlined MFA experience for every member of your private MS Teams channel and makes it as easy as possible for them to safely access your business applications from anywhere, at any time – and from any device.
