Why use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?

Your security is our priority. As part of Frontline Education's continuing efforts to protect sensitive data, we are enabling multi-factor authentication (MFA) with your Frontline Passport. Frontline Education services are committed to use rigorous, industry-accepted security, privacy, and reliability standards such as MFA to ensure your information is secure.

In a world where security related breaches through stolen and weak passwords are a constant threat, an MFA solution is critical to ensure you are who you say you are.

What is MFA?

MFA is an added layer of security used to verify your identity when you sign into an application. To increase security, your account requires an additional contact method to verify it's you.

Note: We highly recommend you provide a personal method of contact in case your employment changes or you relocate in the future.

Logging into Frontline Passport with MFA

On the Frontline Passport login page, enter your email and password and click Sign In with Frontline Passport. *Note that Frontline Passport is different from a Frontline ID.

Note: You will only be required to setup MFA once. If you want to change your options after completing the process, you may do so in Account Settings.

You will then be prompted to set up MFA for your account. You may use a mobile phone or the email address associated with your account. Click Setup under your preferred option.
