Updated FAQ to include info on FXA
==== '''Q''': ''How do I login with Mozilla IAM?'' ====
Mozilla IAM supports various login methods, such as "LDAP" (Staff logins), Firefox Accounts login, GitHub social login, Google social login and email login (which we call "passwordless").
Certain methods support and enforce the use of two-factor authentication (2FA) and may grant access to more sensitive services.
==== '''Q''': ''Why is my login failing with an error message telling me to use "Firefox Accounts/GitHub/Google/LDAP/etc" instead?'' ====
If your login (your primary email address used by Mozilla IAM) matches an existing account which provides higher
We only allow login, or authentication methods that can verifiably require two-factor authentication (2FA) in order to join any group that may grant you access to data that is not public, such as what we call [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Data_Classification STAFF CONFIDENTIAL data].
At the time of writing, only LDAP, Google accounts that use our LDAP backend (i.e. '''not''' '@gmail.com' accounts) , Firefox accounts and GitHub account accounts support this functionality.
Example: you could get a GitHub account with two-factor authentication enabled. Here's some documentation on how to do this: https://help.github.com/articles/about-two-factor-authentication/. <br>Firefox Accounts also supports two-factor-authentication: https://blog.mozilla.org/services/2018/05/22/two-step-authentication-in-firefox-accounts/.
If more authentication methods add support for this in the future and seem to be otherwise safe, we'll gladly allow them as well.
