Dual factor authentication
Double-factor authentication aims to increase user account security. On the senior X Platform, this authentication is done through a temporary code that is obtained through the applicationGoogleAuthenticator.
Phases
- The tenant administrator enables two-factor authentication for all users or for a specific user;
- The user logs in with username and password;
- If it is the user's first access, or the first access since the feature was activated, senior X Platform informs the user that double factor has been enabled and sends an email with instructions;
- User downloads and configures GoogleAuthenticator according to the instructions received;
- The user logs in to the senior X Platform with username and password;
- The system requests the access code;
- The user enters the code that is currently being presented in Google Authenticator and is able to access the senior X Platform.

Important
Because it is not possible to use double-factor authentication in conjunction with SAML authentication, it is recommended to enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) in the service responsible for implementing SAML, if the feature is supported.
