How to enable 2 Factor authentication on Back Office Dashboard?

With secure and controlled user access, you can invite your security team members to the GuardsPro Back Office Dashboard and delegate them different roles. As an additional layer of security you can enable two factor authentication on your account.

Here's a step-by-step instruction to enable 2 Factor authentication on your Back Office Dashboard account :

To enable, click on your company name on the top right corner of the dashboard and select Settings from the drop-down.

Next, click on 2FA Method from the dropdown menu.

On the next screen, you can enhance your account security by adding a second authentication step. Choose from the following available options:

• Email Verification: Receive authentication codes via email when signing into GuardsPro.

Enter the required details for your selected method and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup. Once configured, verify your authentication method to secure your account.

2. Enforce 2FA for All Back Office Users – Enable this option if you want all Back Office users in your organization to be required to use two-factor authentication for enhanced security.
To enable this setting, follow the steps below:

1. Click the toggle button to turn on the Force 2FA Sign-in Policy for All Back Office Users.
2. A confirmation prompt will appear — click Yes to confirm and activate the policy.

Once enabled, all Back Office users will be required to set up and use two-factor authentication when signing in to their accounts and that's it.
