2FA Policy

Scope: SessionLimit 2.0

The 2FA policy is to ensure that end users undergo secondary verification when logging into their computers. It is activated as soon as the user logs in and asks the user for a 6-digit OTP code. OTP codes can be obtained by the following 2 methods.

1. SMS

2. Authenticator mobile app

Although the SMS feature can be selected here, it has 2 prerequisites.

1. In the LDAP settings, the attribute containing the users' mobile phone numbers must be selected.

2. SMS settings must be made.

Care should be taken when implementing 2FA policies. If the affected users do not have an authenticator setting at the time the policy is assigned, or if it is applied when they do not see 2FA activated, the session will be automatically logged out at the end of the specified period. Care should be taken when activating the policy to avoid situations such as data loss on affected computers.

Schedule

Provides 5 different options. Decides how often the 2FA verification should be made by the end user.

Never: Never performs 2FA verification.

When logging on from a new machine: If a different computer is logged in than the last computer with 2FA, it asks the user for 2FA verification,

At Every Logon: It asks for 2FA verification for every login,

At the first logon: It asks for 2FA verification from the user's first session of that day. This option is independent of which computer it is logged in from.

Every X Day(s): This option only asks for 2FA verification once in the specified day range. 2FA verification must be performed in the 2 sessions to be opened after this period.

Max Attempt Count

This is the number of times an incorrect code is allowed to be entered when the end user tries to log in to the computer with 2FA. By default, it is 3, the minimum value is 2 and the maximum value is 5.
