What is Multi-Factor-Authentication?
Prerequisites
To enable MFA you have to
- use Simplifier as User-Management and every User has to activate MFA on his own user profile
- use a third party Identity Management that offers MFA like Azure Active Directory or Keycloak
Enable MFA within Simplifer User-Management
If the User is being managed by Simplifier itself and not by a third-party Identity Management, the User can activate MFA within his User Profile.
Under the Tab Security, you can activate the Two Factor Authentication by click on activate
Scan the QR-Code with your previously installed Authenticator App and enter the first generated code to verify the setup.
In the next screen, you will receive backup-codes in case your device including the app is getting lost – please save this code via copy & paste into a password manager or secure storage.
This is all you have to configure. If you login again into Simplifier Administration Interface, you will be asked after enter the password for the additional factor – the generated code.
