Citrix MFA Mobile App option

Applies to: Citrix Receiver or Workspace users.
Prerequisites: Account configured for MFA by Swizznet-Submit a Support Request.

 

Swizznet now has the option of using the Microsoft Authenticator app on mobile devices for MFA.

 

THIS ONLY WORKS WITH THE MICROSOFT APP. 3RD PARTY APPS (AUTHY, GOOGLE, ETC) DO NOT WORK.

iPhone/AppStore

Android/Google Play

 

A user must already be enrolled in MFA to sign in to the portal as it will require a phone call to them to authenticate.

 

  1. Go to https://mfa.swizznet.com
  2. Enter your Swizznet username and password.
  3. Answer the phone call and press '#' to authenticate.
