I heard that MFA will be required in the Yokohama version.
Where can I remove this setting?

There are a couple of additional steps is also involved. But please be very careful with this option.

Two reasons: 

1. it reduces the security posture of your instance.

2. In the future, we will likely disable the option of setting the MFA property off and making it enabled by default. 

Thanks,

@Randheer Singh 

So in the future you will not be able to turn it off.
May I ask about additional steps?

 

@SotaT 

Although it can be disabled, I suggest not to disable.

As mentioned by @Randheer Singh going forward if it's always enforced and ServiceNow won't give option to disable, at that time you will have to ask users to use MFA

Thank you for your response.
I see that it is possible to set MFA to the other side just by setting the property to false.
However, it is not recommended from a security standpoint, is it?
Is this understanding correct?

@SotaT 

yes that's correct, it's recommended to keep it considering security in picture.
