How to enable Two Factor Authentication (2FA) 🔑
Two factor Authentication is a security mechanism to give you an extra layer of security on your account. More information can be found here.
Enable 2FA using time-based one-time passwords (TOTP):
To enable a TOTP Password you will need a compatible client. You can find some proposals here.
-
Download one compatible TOTP client
-
Connect to your Murena Workspace account
-
Go to your user security settings and make sure “Enable TOTP” is checked
-
The TOTP secret and QR code will be right below it
-
Open the TOTP app
-
Inside your TOTP client, read the QR code shown at step 3 OR type the TOTP secret exactly as it is written.
- To make sure everthing is working, place the generated code at the verification field box and click on “Verify”
- Remember: For security reasons those generated codes expire in about 30 seconds and will not work after that.
-
If the verification fails, a small popup will appear alerting you of that.
- A new code will be calculated every 30 seconds (depending on the TOTP configuration) and will be needed every time you connect to your Murena Workspace account
🎉 2FA is now enabled on your account 🎉
