What are the main types of 2 Factor Authentication?

Post by seonumberlist »

2FA makes it much harder for attackers to access an account even if they have obtained the password. In fact, even if they manage to obtain the password, they will not be able to log in without the “second factor” of authentication.

Currently, there are several two-factor authentication methods, in particular:

Text messages : After entering the credentials, the user receives an SMS with 63 phone number a one-time code to enter to complete the login.
App-based codes : This method is perhaps the most convenient and offers a higher level of security than SMS because the authentication is based on apps that generate rotating codes on demand.
Security Keys : The user must connect the key to the computer via a USB port. The token then generates a one-time code or sequence of numbers.
How to enable 2FA on the Manager Panel
To offer greater security to customers, 2FA can also be activated to access the Shellrent Manager panel.

Authentication is via a dedicated application that generates one-time passwords (OTPs).

The setup is quick and easy, you can follow the Guide or the following instructions:

Log in to your user profile and click on “ My Profile ”.
From the functions on the left bar, choose “ Profile Security ” and follow the instructions to set up 2FA using an authenticator app.
