How to Enroll with Okta

Start by logging into your Okta Dashboard using your current Hologic network username and password https://login.hologic.com

You will be asked to enroll different factors, while you do not have to enroll for all of them we recomend you pick at least two.

Okta Verify

Okta Verify is a mobile app that verifies your identity in one of two ways. Okta can send you a push notification that you approve using Okta Verify. Alternatively, Okta Verify can generate a six-digit code that you enter into your Okta login screen to access your required app.
Install Okta Verify

1. Download the “Okta Verify” app from the Apple App Store or Google Play onto your primary mobile device. 
2. Using your computer’s browser, navigate to your organization’s Okta page, https://login.hologic.com
3. Fill in your company-issued credentials and click Sign In.
4. When prompted to enroll in Okta Verify, open the Okta Verify app on your phone and scan the barcode that appears in your computer’s browser.
5. The next time you log into Okta, it should offer to send you a push notification or ask you for a numeric code. If you choose the push notification, then approve it when it arrives on your phone. If you choose to use the code, then access the code in Okta Verify and enter it into your browser.

Note: You can only register Okta Verify on one device at a time. Authenticating on a second device cancels authorization for the first one.

Voice call

This factor calls you via your smartphone or landline and reads an access code aloud. You then type the code into the browser to access your app. This is great for people who don’t have access to a cell phone because it doesn’t require push notifications or text messages.
