# Enable MFA in Security Settings

> How to turn on multi-factor authentication from Security Settings if you declined or postponed it earlier.

If you declined or postponed MFA at sign-in and want to turn it on now, you can do it from your account's Security Settings.

<Info>
  **Gradual rollout:** Multi-factor authentication is being rolled out gradually, organisation by organisation. You may not see it on your account yet — that's expected. Once it's available, you'll be prompted on your next sign-in.
</Info>

## Enable MFA

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Security Settings">
    From the left-hand navigation, open your user profile and select **Security Settings**. This is the same area you use to change your password.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose Enable MFA">
    Find the **Multi-Factor Authentication** section and click **Enable MFA**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Follow the setup steps">
    A QR code will appear. Follow the steps in [Set Up MFA](/knowledgebase/security/set-up-mfa) to scan it with your authenticator app and verify the first code.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>Once enabled, MFA stays on until you turn it off — see [Disable MFA in Security Settings](/knowledgebase/security/disable-mfa).</Tip>

## I can't see Security Settings or the Enable MFA option

A few reasons this can happen:

* **Your role may not have access to security settings.** Contact your administrator.
* **MFA may not be available for your organisation yet.** See the gradual rollout note above.

<Note>If you're stuck, see [MFA Issues](/knowledgebase/troubleshooting/mfa-issues) or contact your administrator.</Note>
