# How to create and configure Factor Sequence

> This document provides step-by-step instructions to create factor sequence for MFA Apps.

Factor Sequence helps set up rules for \*multi-factor authentication in Oloid applications. It determines the order and combination of these methods to make sure that the authentication process is effective and secure.

\*Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a security process that requires users to authenticate their identity using two or more verification methods.

## Steps to create Factor Sequence
