Enable two factor auth for powerbi login. Added security level when running outside of an integrated AD scenario

RE: Two factor authentication

Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) for data refresh too. 3 votes for you. My account has been elevated with MFA casuing data refresh to fail. Power BI is saying "Your data source can't be refreshed because the credentials are invalid. Please update your crendetials and try again." Updating the credential fails on coporate LAN/Wifi but works when using mobile broadbadn e.g. phone tethering or mobile hotspot.

RE: Two factor authentication

Concerned about using PowerBI app for IOS and Android.

How are credentials encrypted when signing on (authentication)?

The data coming from cloud to app; is it encrypted?
