2-Factor Authentication

2-Factor Authentication (2FA) allows users to make their Managed Services accounts more secure.

2-Factor Authentication is a required security measure for all users, and involves more than just a simple username and password when logging in. Managed Service's 2-Factor Authentication can be configured to accept a code that is sent to the user's mobile phone via a secondary authentication system.

Administrators can enable two-factor authentication through profile or permissions settings. Users then register for two-factor authentication through their own personal settings on their mobile device, using Authy 2-Factor Authenticator, Google Authenticator, or Microsoft Authenticator. In this section, we'll provide information about how to enable 2FA, set up a secondary authentication system, and enable your 2FA account settings on a different device.
