I'll explain why Microsoft asks for extra sign-in proof, what “something unusual” really means, and how to set up backup email, phone, or authenticator options before you leave so you can get your code and your account back when it matters most.⚛️ Additional verification
When you sign in from a new place, device, or app, Microsoft may think something unusual is happening and require extra security. Hackers often attack from other countries, so Microsoft asks for a code to prove it’s really you. If you didn’t set up a backup email, phone, or an authenticator ahead of time, you might get locked out while traveling.
