Activate role-based multi-factor authentication [Updated in Security Center 1.3]
Use the glide.authenticate.multifactor property to enforce role-based multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all users assigned to specific roles.
Enforce multi-factor authentication based on the roles assigned to the user. If a user has been assigned "admin", "security_admin" or "user_admin" roles in the multi-factor roles list, MFA will be enforced.
- Set this property to true to enforce role-based multi-factor authentication for all users assigned to specific roles.
- Set this property to false to disable role-based multi-factor authentication for all users assigned to specific roles.
