Google is\u00a0always looking for new ways to keep your users\u2019 accounts secure and your organization\u2019s data safe.

How to Activate the employee ID login challenge?<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 
\nThe employee ID login challenge can only be deployed in domains where a G Suite admin has provided that ID information for their users. You can do this in one of three ways:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Upload employee IDs<\/a>\u00a0directly into the Admin console.<\/li>\n
  2. Use Google Cloud Directory Sync<\/a>\u00a0to pull employee IDs from Microsoft Active Directory or an LDAP server.<\/li>\n
  3. Use the G Suite Admin SDK Directory API<\/a>\u00a0to populate the \u201cexternalIds[].type\u201d \u201corganization\u201d field with employee IDs.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Once you\u2019ve added this employee ID information, you can turn on the login challenge from the Admin console (Security > Login challenges > Use employee ID to keep my users more secure<\/i>). Note that the employee ID login challenge is OFF by default.<\/p>\n

    Check out the Help Center for more information on\u00a0how to add an employee ID as a login challenge<\/a>.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Notify your users<\/b><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

     
    \nIf you choose to activate this login challenge, we recommend letting your users know where they can find their employee ID and that they may be asked for it when they sign in to their G Suite account. If they\u2019d prefer to verify their identity another way, they should\u00a0    update their phone number and recovery email address<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    Please note that this login challenge will not be presented to any user with two-step verification enabled.<\/p>\n
