Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication provides a higher level of security for the Access Commander user account. To log in, the user enters the login data and has to confirm the login using an authentication application. Once the administrator turns on two-factor authentication, the user will be prompted to interconnect the user account with an authentication application of their own in the next login.

Two-Factor Authentication Enable

If the administrator sets optional two-factor authentication, you enable two-factor authentication yourself as follows:

  1. The administrator sets two-factor authentication in Settings > Configuration > Two-factor authentication.

  2. The administrator can choose which users will be requested to use two-factor authentication.
