Understanding 2-step verification

Two-step verification enhances security of web accounts. When activated, it requires two forms of identification to access the MiaRec application: login credentials, and one-time passcode that is sent via text message (sms) to a registered phone number, email or Authy application.

Two-Step Verification is configured from the Admin Console.

Log in to MiaRec Web portal as system administrator and navigate to Administration > User Authentication > 2-Step Verification page.

Here, you can enable one or more Two-Step Verification methods:

• SMS-based verification
• Email-based verification
• Authy app-based verification

Two-Step Verification is turned on, if at least one method is configured and enabled.

Two-Step Verification can be enforced for a user or for a tenant. Enforcing for a tenant takes precedence over enforcing for a user.
