What is Joomla Two Factor Authentication?
Joomla Two Factor Authentication (TFA/MFA) is a security feature that requires users to provide further proof of identity when accessing a Joomla website. The first factor is typically a password, and the second factor authentication can be a unique code sent via text, or a time-based code on an authentication app. This feature adds an extra layer of security to your Joomla website and protects your users from unauthorized access.
Why use Joomla Two Factor Authentication?
Protect user accounts from unauthorized access
If someone steals or guesses a user's password, they still need another factor, such as a code sent to the user's phone or a fingerprint scan, to log in to the account. This makes it much harder for hackers to break into the user's accounts and access their personal information.
Easy to set up and use
Many websites and services offer 2FA as an option or a requirement for their users. You can enable 2FA in your site using our plugin and choose the method that suits you best, such as SMS, email, app, or biometric. Once you set up 2FA, you only need to enter the second factor when you log in from a new device or location, or after a certain period of time.
Reduces the risk of identity theft
Identity theft and fraud can have serious consequences. You can prevent hackers from using your stolen credentials or making fraudulent transactions on your behalf by using a second factor authentication.
Key Features for our Joomla 2FA/MFA Plugin
