## Enforce MFA for the organization

**Organization Admins** can require multi-factor authentication (MFA) for everyone in the organization, current and future users alike.

1. Go to [**Organization > Security > Authentication**](https://app.stackone.com/organization/security/authentication).
2. On the **Multi-factor Authentication** card, select **Enable MFA**.
3. Select **Confirm**.

Users without MFA set it up the next time they sign in.

## Help a user who is locked out

An **Organization Admin** can unlock an account locked by failed sign-ins, or reset another user's MFA. Select **Unlock Member** or **Reset MFA** from the user's menu on the **Members** tab of [**Organization > Manage Team**](https://app.stackone.com/organization/manage_team).
