Multi-factor authentication provides an essential layer of security to your Venue room.
You can select to use the Auth0 Guardian app which will send push notifications to your phone, receive a code by text message, or receive an email with a code.
Note: Whatever option you select will be what you use when you login to Venue going forward. If you decide later that an alternate option would be better suited (ex. SMS instead of Push Notification), you can update your preferred option from My Profile or our Venue Client Services team can help you adjust this setting.
