Set up two-factor authentication With two-factor authentication, use a secure, app-generated token to verify your administrative account. This is a time-based, one-time password that is generated using an app on your mobile device used to securely sign in to the administrative portal from a previously unverified browser or device. Recommended apps for authentication include Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, or Authy. To turn on two-factor authentication for your account: Click on your username in the top right of the page. On the My Profile page, under Account Information, your 2-Step Verification status is displayed. Click Manage Settings to update your authentication settings. Click Enable 2-Step Verification. Enter your password and click Authenticate. Verification codes are sent to the email address associated with your account to verify future login attempts. Click Switch to Token-Based Verification to enable verification via an app. We recommend that you upgrade to our more secure token-based verification. Enter your password and click Authenticate. Scan the QR code provided with your chosen authenticator app. You will be provided a time-based token, which is entered in the Verification Code field below the QR code. Once complete, a confirmation message is displayed. ​To turn off token-based verification, click Use Email Verification. To turn off two-factor authentication verification, click Disable 2-Step Verification.
