Two-factor authentication in Command Center

Overview

You can enable two-factor authentication to secure your Command Center account. If enabled, the system sends the account's email address a one-time-use PIN. The PIN allows you to access your Untangle account after you successfully authenticate with your normal username and password. 

If enabled, Two-factor authentication requires PIN confirmation upon each login. If you frequently connect using the same system and browser, you can opt to "remember me" during PIN verification. This option uses a secure cookie to authenticate your browser after login. The cookie is valid for 30 days.

Enabling Two-factor authentication

1. In Command Center, click Account > My Account at the top right-hand corner.
2. Click Settings.
3. In the Security section, check "Enable Two-Factor Authentication".
