ExpiredVigorACS - Two Factor Authentication
A single password provides just one layer of security because users can save their credentials on their computer, write it down on a paper or be seen typing it. Hence, two-factor authentication is recommended to increase the security of your VigorACS 2 accounts.
This article demonstrates how to enable Two-factor authentication for VigorACS 2 users.
1. Login to your ACS server. Then open Account Centre (the top right section):
2. Click Two-factor Authentication:
- Turn on Two Factor Authentication.
- Download and install Google Authenticator (iOS/Android).
- Scan a barcode or manually input the secret key.
- Click the Save button to confirm the code generated by the App.
3. Logout and then login again to make sure that Two-factor authentication works on your VigorACS account.
4. Enter the Verify Code generated by the app.
Note: The verification code keeps changing automatically every 30 seconds or so. Make sure that the verification code is still valid before you enter it while accessing your VigorACS account.
