We understand concerns about using personal resources for work-related purposes. However, the Microsoft Authenticator app, which we recommend for MFA, consumes minimal data—likely less than 1% of a gigabyte for the entire year. This means the impact on your data plan will be negligible. And, if you're already using the Microsoft Authenticator app for other purposes, such as accessing your bank or investment information, adding an account for RRU is seamless. It streamlines the process and ensures consistency in your security practices across different platforms. | Info |
