Two Factor Authentication or 2FA is a two step verification process that provides an extra layer of security for you when accessing your Midphase account. This additional step will require a passcode that is sent to your mobile|cell phone to be entered into the login screen.
2FA provides a higher level of protection for your Midphase account and the data held within it by reducing the risk of an intruder or attacker gaining access to it. You will also have a login history that will include details such as IP, date and time and if the login attempt was successful or not.
The existing password system already provides a layer of security when logging into your control panel. 2FA is a more secure system because it requires the use of an additional device to verify your identity.
