Two-factor authentication (2FA) feature
Activate the two-factor (2FA) feature in Productsup.
Introduction
Two-factor (2FA) authentication requires you to prove your identity, apart from your standard credentials, when logging in. An authenticator sends a code to your mobile phone to confirm your identity.
You can use a third-party authenticator, such as Google Authenticator, which you can install on both Apple iOS and Google Android devices.
You can activate 2FA under your user profile. For step-by-step instructions on the setup, see User profile setup.
Note
To activate 2FA authentication for all users, you must be an administrator of your account.
Tip
Learn more about the 2FA benefits and use cases on our Academy website by taking the video course User authentication and management.

Activate 2FA authentication for all users
You can force 2FA authentication for all account members as an account admin.
Note
If you activate 2FA authentication for all users, ensure every user in your account recognizes this change. 2FA forces all users to authenticate during their next login and can not access the account without doing so first.
Perform the following steps to turn on 2FA for all account members:
Go to your account-level Settings.
Select Force two-factor authentication for the entire account.
Select Save.
