The Microsoft Account Portal provides an overview of your account settings as well access to update your verification settings that are required for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Self Service Password Reset (SSPR) updates.
This article provides an overview of:
- Navigation to My Account

- Password Update: change Acadia password
- Other functions within Portal.

Security info methods are used for both two-factor security verification and for password reset. However, not all methods can be used for both. You will require at least 2 authentication methods.
