Set Up Security Questions as an Authentication Method

Enroll in the security questions 2–Step Verification method.

When multi-factor authentication (MFA) is enabled, the first time that you log in, the Select Your Default 2-Step Verification Method flow appears after you enter your user name and password.
  1. Enter your user name and password in an MFA-protected environment.
    The 2-Step Verification page appears, and then you are prompted for your second verification method.
  2. On the Enable 2-Step Verification introduction page, click Enable 2-Step Verification.
    The authentication methods available to you appear on the Select Your Default 2-Step Verification Method page.
  3. Click Security Questions.
    The number of security questions that you are required to answer appear.
  4. Select the questions, and then provide your answers.
  5. (Optional) Enter answer hints. The answer and the hint can’t be the same.
    The hint appears as a tooltip when you are using security questions as your second authentication method.
  6. Click Save.
    The Successfully Enrolled page appears.
  7. Click Done.
    To set up an additional method during enrollment, select another method from the bottom of the page, and then walk through the enrollment process for that method. Alternatively, you can set up additional methods later using the Security tab in the Oracle Identity Cloud Service My Profile console.
