Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Since your password could be discovered by an unauthorised third party, Cloudomation Engine offers Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) as additional safety option.

How to enable or disable 2FA in Engine​

Enabling 2FA​

When registering a new user, you can choose to enable 2FA in the registration form.

For your existing user you can navigate to your user profile (User Management -> Edit profile). Then click on Enable two-factor authentication.

Enable two-factor authentication (2FA)

Use any 2FA application of your choice on your phone or other device to complete the process and follow the instructions on the form.

Disabling 2FA​

You can disable 2FA by clicking on Disable two-factor authentication in your user profile.

Using 2FA​

On Engine you will be asked to enter your 2FA code for the following actions:

  • Login
  • Changing the password
  • Recovering your account (password)
  • Changing your email address

When requested, simply enter your current 2FA code that is shown in your 2FA application.
