Reset MFA- Cortex XDR

L0 Member

Hi all,
Want to reset MFA for user who is Managing Cortex XDR admin console. Since am the Super user & Account admin but still unable to find the option to reset MFA. Please help us with the options and steps.

Hi @Barakath ,

Cortex XDR has some really strange authentication and authorization setup...The authentication is done by Customer Support Portal, but as it is mentioned here - Two Factor Authentication for Customer Support Portal - Knowledge Base - Palo Alto Networks MFA is no longer managed under CSP.

 

The only way user can change his MFA is to login to https://sso.paloaltonetworks.com/enduser/settings

Unfortunately in order to login here user needs to have his password and his MFA, so you have "the egg and the chicken" situation. I don't believe you can reset MFA for another user.

 

User needs to contact support - https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/company/contact-support and ask them to reset his MFA. They will disable his Okta/Google Auth and enable email MFA. This way user will be able to login to above link and set new Google Auth or Okta

Hi @aleksandar.astardzhiev It's ridiculous. Currently user don't have the device in which MFA is enrolled that is the reason looking for MFA reset. Super user should reset MFA for user.
