Configure/reconfigure/disable multifactor authentication
When you log in to HULFT Square, you can use multifactor authentication.
To prevent unauthorized access and improve security, it's recommended to configure the settings for multifactor authentication.
Description
This scenario describes the following operations.
-
To configure multifactor authentication, you need an authentication application, such as Microsoft Authenticator or Google Authenticator.
Download the authentication application on a device such as a smartphone, not on the device that's running HULFT Square.
The device needs to be able to scan 2D barcodes.
-
If you change your password, multifactor authentication settings are disabled. Log in to the HULFT Square site with your new password, and reconfigure multifactor authentication if you need to.
-
Users with SSO enabled can't log in by password or multifactor authentication (MFA).
For how to log in with multifactor authentication, refer to Log in and log out in the tutorials.
