Setting up Two-factor Authentication (2FA)
Two-factor authentication (2FA) is a specific type of multi-factor authentication (MFA) that strengthens access security by requiring two methods to verify your identity. These factors include something you know — a username and password — plus something you have — like a smartphone app — to approve authentication requests.
Setting up Two-factor Authentication
To set up two-factor authentication, do the following:
-
Log into the platform.
-
Click the profile icon from the top-right corner.
-
Select Your Profile.
-
Select Two-factor Authentication Settings.
-
Activate two-factor authentication (2FA):
You can set up 2FA by either:
-
Installing Google Authenticator, Authy or Duo – the app you install will generate a six-digit code that regenerates every 30 seconds. Once set up, you will need to enter this code when logging in to the system.
-
Activating 2FA via SMS – Every time you try to log in, you will receive an SMS with a code that you will need to enter.
