# Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor Authentication is an enhanced security measure that allows users to identify a trusted device and configure it to verify their sessions with each log in by providing a unique, time-sensitive code that works to authenticate the user as the person accessing the portal. Users will need an authentication code generating application installed on their trusted device (which is usually a mobile device). The recommended service is Google Authenticator, but other applications like Duo Mobile and Windows Authenticator will work.

Two-factor Authentication can be enabled from the Manage Module, under the Security option. For more information on configuring Two-factor Authentication, please view the How to Configure Two-factor Authentication Article.
