Microsoft MFA Authentication
Starting November 16, 2022, authentication will use the Cardinal ID Login and MFA process.
This will provide a familiar authentication method you already use for other resources.
You will be redirected to your default web browser where your current MFA settings will be used.
NOTE: During this process, multiple browser windows may open prompting you to Open Global Protect. This behavior is expected.
