SETTING UP THE TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION

Introduction

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is an essential security measure that enhances the protection of your online accounts and sensitive information. By requiring two forms of verification before granting access to an account, 2FA adds an extra layer of defense against unauthorized access, even if your password is compromised.

In a typical login process, you enter your username and password. With 2FA, after entering your password, you'll need to provide an additional piece of information that proves it's really you. This second factor can come in various forms, such as a temporary code sent to your phone or a code generated by an app.

📌Pre-Requisite

You need to be an IT/HR Admin to trigger these action.
Make sure Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is enabled by navigating to your Company Profile. Scroll down to the bottom of the page toggle the switch to Enable 2FA for added account protection.

📌There are 2 options to setup the MFA:

Two-Factor Authentication via Email
Two-Factor Authentication via Authenticator App

Note: You can only enable one authentication method at a time. Once you activate one option, the other authentication methods will be disabled.

Option 1: Two-Factor Authentication via Email

Option 2: Two-Factor Authentication via Authenticator App

📌Additional Notes:

Once this setting is enabled, users will be required to enter a verification code—sent to their email or generated by an authenticator app—when logging into the platform.
All employees will also receive a notification prompting them to set up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) on their accounts for added security.
