Configuring Two-factor Authentication - Offsite DR Server

Implementing Two Factor Authentication in the Offsite DR Server provides an additional security layer, enhancing data protection. This mechanism ensures access only to authorized individuals who possess both the correct login credentials and a verification code sent via email. By requiring this dual authentication, Two Factor Authentication significantly enhances account security, limiting the risk of unauthorized access to the Offsite DR Server.

Navigate to ‘Management -> Settings-> Two Factor Authentication‘. Check the box to enable the Two Factor Authentication. Once this feature is enabled, during the login process, you will have to provide an additional verification code along with your regular login credentials. This code will be sent to your registered email address.
Notes
Note: Two Factor Authentication is enabled for all user accounts on this server. You can customize the two-factor authentication for individual users from the ‘Management-> Users‘.
