2-Factor Authentication (2FA)
2-Factor Authentication (2FA) is an identity and access management security method that adds an extra layer of security for your Deep Freeze Cloud account.
Enabling 2-Factor Authentication requires you to enter your password.
When enabled, all users in the Organization logging in to Deep Freeze Cloud will need to enter a six-digit verification code (received through email).
 | Only users with Super Administrator and Administrator permission rights can enforce 2-Factor Authentication for the Organization. |
Enabing 2-Factor Authentication
Complete the following steps to enable 2-factor authentication:
1. Go to User Management.
2. Click 2-Factor Authentication > Enable.
3. Enter your password to enable 2-factor authentication.
Note that this will enable 2-factor authentication for all users in this Organization.
4. Click Enable.
Once enabled, users will be sent a 6-digit code through email, which they will need when signing in to Deep Freeze Cloud.
 | During sign-in, users have the option to Trust This Computer. When this option is selected, users will not be asked for a verification code when signing in for 30 days. |
When the global 2-Factor Authentication (2FA) is enabled for the whole Organization, the option to enable/disable the 2-Factor Authentication under My Profile is disabled.
