Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a security system that requires more than one form of authentication to verify a transaction or to enable access to a program. MFA combines two or more independent credentials; what you know (a password), what you have (a security token or number), and who you are (fingerprint).
To enable MFA, you must acquire an Authenticator application to which you can link your programs. Authenticator applications are typically installed on mobile devices such as mobile phones.
There are many authenticator applications available, but the following free IOS and Android mobile applications have been tested to work with Access Ledger.
Google Authenticator
Microsoft Authenticator
Okta Verify
When you link Access Ledger to an authenticator application, in addition to your login name and password, you are required to enter a single-use 6-digit code every time you log in. The code is only valid for a short period, typically 30 seconds, before a new code is generated.
Important: For the authentication to be successful the device providing the 6-digit authentication codes needs to reflect the exact same time and time zone as the device that you using to connect to Access Ledger.
