Microsoft Authenticator is a security application for Android by one of the largest multinational corporations. Users can set a 2FA to protect accounts from popular services against various threats.
Advantages
Known for an advanced two-factor authentication, the tool helps users improve their accounts security by confirming their identity with one-time passcodes. This OTP is generated within the app itself for each sign in attempt. Thus, it is possible to protect digital data with one additional password.
Aside from supporting all popular Microsoft services like OneNote and OneDrive, the app is also suitable for Facebook, Gmail and Instagram profiles. You can easily manage your online identities and make sure only you have access to your accounts, whether they are for personal or professional usage.
Management
Instead of remembering and entering different passwords, you may just approve a notification sent to your mobile device and successfully complete the authorization. This method reduces the hassle of managing multiple complex credentials while maintaining high level security.
On top of everything else, there is a built-in password manager that stores and autofills paroles minimizing manual intervention.
