Verify - Validate Your Identity

OATH

TOKEN

Two-Factor Authentication is a more secure method of verifying or validating your identity by requiring ‘what you have' and ‘who you are' in addition to the standard usernames and passwords. Two-Factor Authentication will provide more security, making it much more difficult for an attacker to impersonate you and your accounts/resources.

HOW IT WORKS

Mobile-

 The Two-Factor Authentication option will be managed through a new gateway user permission.

OTP

 To enroll, simply login to the administrative account and click OPTIONS then USER ACCOUNTS.  After selecting the username to be activated you will see a checkbox to ‘REQUIRE TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION'.  After selecting the box a security passphrase will be generated or you have the option to create a new HEX passphrase. It is strongly recommended that you use the randomly generated key upon activation.  Once the permission has been activated you will then need the passphrase to be input into an external application.  After Two-Factor Authentication has been set up and synchronized in both systems you will have to generate a key upon logging in. Each key generated on your device will remain active for 90 seconds weather or not they were used to grant access.
