Enable Multi-Factor Authentication in PI Software

Multi-factor authentication is a user verification method designed to protect your PI Software account from security breaches and cyberattacks. MFA helps prevent bad actors from accessing your account even when they have stolen your login email and password. MFA works by requiring you to provide an additional form of identity verification: authenticator app, email, or SMS. When a login is attempted from an unknown location or device, MFA will trigger, prompting the user to verify their identity using a one-time-use code sent via their preferred MFA method. MFA can be enabled by software administrators in the Administration module under Company Settings. Read more about MFA HERE

Single Sign-On Now Available in PI Software

Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication method that lets you log in to your PI Software account using a business Google or Microsoft account. SSO lets users authenticate themselves without needing to enter their PI credentials. Not only does this save time, but it also reduces the risk of users relying on weak or reused passwords. When you log in with SSO, PI Software interfaces with Google or Microsoft to verify your identity and grant you access to your PI account. SSO is a user-specific setting that must be enabled on a per-user basis. Note that if your software administrators have enabled Multi-Factor Authentication in, SSO will not be an option and users will need to log into PI Software using their PI login.

The M Score on The PI Behavioral Assessment

The number next to the M that is shown to the left below the Self and Self-Concept graphs refers to the number of adjectives the assessment taker selected on The PI Behavioral Assessment on the respective page. The M score below the Synthesis graph is the sum of the M scores of the Self and Self-Concept. Assessment takers can choose no fewer than six and no more than 80 out of the 86 words on each page, and any M score within that range indicates a valid result. We do, however, advise you to be especially thorough during the readback if an individual has chosen 10 or fewer words on either page to confirm that the profile is indeed valid. In some cases, a very low M score could be an indication that the assessment taker has taken it in a language they are not entirely familiar with, or that they have not taken it seriously due to, e.g., skepticism.  Please note that research does not support using the M score for any workplace decision-making as it is not a scientific measure of any construct.
