How to enable 2FA on Microsoft 365 Copilot

  1. Sign in to your Microsoft 365 Copilot account.
  2. Open Account settings → Security (the exact path varies; see the official docs link above).
  3. Choose your preferred method from the list — TOTP and hardware keys are the recommended options.
  4. For TOTP: scan the QR code with Kaito or your authenticator app of choice. Verify the first 6-digit code before saving.
  5. Save the recovery codes somewhere safe — they're your last resort if you lose your authenticator and your hardware keys.

Sharing Microsoft 365 Copilot 2FA with a team (with Kaito)

Kaito gives you a vault for shared TOTP and a real-time inbox for shared SMS, with per-token group permissions and an audit log on every code view. To share Microsoft 365 Copilot access with your team:

  1. In Kaito, go to Tokens → New and add the Microsoft 365 Copilot 2FA seed (or scan the QR).
  2. Permission the token to a group: code-only for most teammates, full-seed only for the admins who would handle rotation.
  3. Stream the audit log to your SIEM if you want a complete record of which team members generated codes for Microsoft 365 Copilot and when.

Note: Microsoft 365 Copilot's terms on account sharing are unclear or grey-area. Many teams share access in practice; doing so via Kaito gives you a clean audit trail if it ever becomes a question.
