Two Factor Authentication

since build 256

Pimcore has an integrated two factor authentication using the Google Authenticator (Android, iOS)

User Setup​

By default every user can enable or disable their two factor authentication freely in the profile settings. SettingsSettingsSettings (Settings -> My Profile)

After enabling it a secret will be generated and you can setup your Google Authenticator App.

Please be aware if you don't setup the App properly you will loose access to your account!

If this is enabled the user will have to setup two factor authentication and cannot disable it anymore.
