Two-factor authentication

[Brendan Payne]

When are we going to see 2FA as an option for Intella Connect?  This is the sole reason we have limited access to inside our organisation only - would be great to open up to external users.

Similar products such as EDT have moved to 2FA recently.  Any update on this?

We are open to getting this done, but there are several tasks which keep our team occupied at the moment. I can only promise we will reevaluate this as soon as more urgent tasks get done.

Brendan,

we are considering adding Single Sign On (SSO) support via OAuth in Intella Connect soon.

As a side effect of being able to log in into SSO provider who has two factor authentication provided, would that satisfy your need? Or would you prefer to have stand alone two factor authentication in Intella Connect due to not using SSO?

For example, provided that Intella Connect would have SSO support, you could configure Google as your SSO provider. Since Google has two factor authentication already provided in their systems, you could then log in into your Google account, via email and password. Google will then ask you to provide code as part of two factor authentication. After successfully logging in into Google, you could navigate to Intella Connect without having to log in, because you already logged in into Google and your credentials were carried over via SSO.

Would that work for you?

Additionally, if you would be interested in SSO, could you please take a look into topic:

 

and let us know what you think?

@Brendan Payne we are adding 2FA in next version of Intella Connect. You will be able to use Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator to sign in. We are also thinking about integrating it with LDAP accounts, do you happen to be using it too?
