Enhance login security with two-factor authentication (2FA). When enabled, users will be required to verify their identity with a one-time password (OTP) sent to their registered email during login, making it significantly harder for unauthorized users to gain access.
Watch this video for a quick overview.
Let's explore how to enable two-factor authentication in Practice Settings.
Navigate to the System Menu > select Practice Settings > Administration > Security.
On the User Login tab, click Edit on the Two Factor Authentication (2FA) section.
- Click the toggle button to Enable Two Factor Authentication (2FA).
- You can Apply 2FA to:
- All Users in Account, or
-
All Users in Selected Locations.
- If you select All Users in Selected Locations, choose the Locations for which 2FA should be enabled for all users in the selected location.
- To Skip 2FA for Allowed IP Addresses, select Yes. To learn how to set up IP restrictions, click here.
- Click Save.
Once two-factor authentication (2FA) is enabled, users will receive a one-time password (OTP) at their registered email address during the login process.
- Enter the 6 Digit OTP.
- Click Verify (users will be automatically directed to the system).
