🔒 Re-Authentication Requirement

🚨 Initial State: Edit Protection

• Default Behaviour: All add/edit functionality disabled when screen first loads
• Visual Indicator: Add/edit icons and buttons appear grayed out
• Security Rationale: Prevents unauthorized changes even if session is compromised
• User Experience: Clear indication that additional authentication is required

⚡ Re-Authentication Trigger

• Confirmation Required: System displays re-authentication confirmation screen
• User Choice: User must explicitly confirm desire to enable editing
• Clear Messaging: "To make any changes to the Sign in Options, Re-authentication (re-login) is required"
• Action Button: "Confirm" button to proceed with re-authentication

🔐 Re-Authentication Process

1. Confirmation: User clicks "Confirm" to proceed
2. Redirect: User directed to full authentication flow
3. Complete MFA: User must complete all required authentication factors
4. Session Validation: System validates successful re-authentication
5. Edit Mode Activation: Add/edit buttons become clickable and functional
