On the sign-in screen, enter your newly set up University email (########@students.lincoln.ac.uk) and then your password (changed in Step 1 above).
- You will be prompted to set up additional security for your account known as multi-factor authentication. This additional level of security means that only you will have access to your University account, files and information.
- To set up the Microsoft Authenticator App as an authentication method, click “Next” and follow the on-screen steps.
The Microsoft Authenticator App will now be your default sign-in method when logging into University resources. When you attempt to sign in, you will receive a notification on your phone via the app.
