Multi Factor Authentication (MFA)

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a security mechanism that requires users to provide two or more verification factors to gain access to our platform. This additional layer of security helps prevent unauthorized access even if your password is compromised.

This documentation provides step-by-step instructions on how to set up multi-factor authentication for your Simbase account.

Steps to Set Up Multi-factor Authentication

To enable MFA, all you have to do is follow the steps below:

1. Log in to your account and navigate to the Profile page.

2. Toggle the Multi-Factor Authentication switch.

3. Scan the QR Code with your favourite authenticator app or copy & paste the setup key.

4. Enter the authentication code and Verify.

Managing approved devices is easy - all you have to do is click on Manage devices (below the MFA toggle) where you can review already approved devices and remove them from the list.

Implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) is paramount for ensuring the security of your Simbase account. MFA adds an extra layer of protection beyond passwords, which is essential in today's interconnected IoT environment. By requiring additional verification steps, such as biometrics or unique codes, MFA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and potential breaches. We strongly recommend proactively securing your Simbase account with MFA to bolster both the security of your account and the protection of your valuable data.
