MS Authenticator App

How to enable 2FA on Veracode

Enable two-factor authentication on Veracode to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Veracode asks for a rotating code from MS Authenticator App in addition to your password.

Step-by-step setup

  1. 1

    Sign in to Veracode and open your Veracode account security settings.

  2. 2

    Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.

    Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.

  3. 3

    Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.

    Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Veracode displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.

  4. 4

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your Veracode account.

  5. 5

    Save your backup codes.

    Store the recovery codes Veracode gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.

Menu names on Veracode can change — the official Veracode 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
