Two-Factor Authentication

Two-Factor Authentication

Overview

We highly recommend using Two Factor Authentication.  There may be circumstances where this is not feasible.  In such cases, the Two-Factor Authentication can be switched off.  Alternatively, a user may need to have their Two-Factor Authentication reset.

Permissions

Only the administrator (usually the Clerk) will have access to the Admin Panel to manage users.
