Multi-factor Authentication Requirement for Sales Apps:

Effective Wednesday, November 13, 2024, Sunrun will be implementing a Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) for accessing all Sunrun sales applications, adding a critical layer of security by requiring users to provide more than one form of authentication to access your account. Users can opt to connect to the Salesforce Authenticator app or other options such as Okta Verify, 1Password, Authy, or Google Authenticator.

What to expect:

1. First Login: You will be prompted to set up an authenticator application with your account.

a. 2 word phrase

2. Second Login & Beyond: Enter your username and password, then enter the code from the authenticator app OR approve the push notification from the authenticator app of your choice.

3. Expired Authentication: You will be required to log in again to ensure security every 8 hours unless your session is terminated.

Sunrun appreciates your understanding and participation in implementing this important change. Together, we are working to reduce the risk of unauthorized access and safeguarding our information from cyber threats.
