What is two-factor authentication (2FA)?
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is an additional step of security that can be added when users try to access their Emply account. The advantage of activating this is that it increases your account security.
By default, when logging into Emply with your Emply username and password, you will not be asked for any further verification. With 2FA, in addition to the password, you will also be required to provide the security code that was sent to your e-mail address.
Set up two-factor authentication in Emply
1. Go to "Settings" > "Integrations"
2. In the tab Applications, click on the Activate button under Two-factor authentication (2FA)
3. In the pop-up, confirm by clicking on Activate again
The 2FA is now active.
You now have to create a template to the e-mail, that will be send when you log into your Emply account with your username and password, and will then receive an e-mail in your inbox containing a security code. You need to enter this code in order to access your account.
Your users will then receive this mail:
Deactivating 2FA
To deactivate the 2FA, simply go to "Settings" > "Integrations" > click on "Activated" under Two-factor Authentication (2FA). In the pop-up, confirm by clicking on the "Remove application" button.
