Adding an OTP (one-time PIN) authenticator¶
If you want an extra layer of security (multi-factor authentication), you can add a one-time PIN generator, such as an authenticator app, to your account. When you have an authenticator app active, you'll need to enter a one-time PIN and your password every time you log in (unless you also have a hardware key active, in which case you can choose upon logging in).
Adding an OTP authenticator¶
- Choose an OTP authenticator app.
- Go to My account > Manage.
- Click Manage One-Time PIN (OTP).
- Scan the QR code with your authenticator app.
- Enter the code that your authenticator app provides, and click OK to confirm.
- Click Activate OTP.
- As long as you have an OTP authenticator active, you need your password and a one-time PIN to log in.
Removing an OTP authenticator¶
- Go to My account > Manage.
- Click Manage One-Time PIN (OTP).
- Click Deactivate OTP, and click OK to confirm.
- Now, you no longer need an OTP to log in.
