Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

The security of your company's data is our top priority, which is why we have added an extra layer of protection to safeguard your account and information.

What is 2FA?

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a method of securing an account that requires the user to provide two forms of identity verification: something they know (e.g., a password) and something they have (e.g., a code sent to their phone).

Why should you use 2FA?

Using 2FA significantly enhances the security level of your account. Even if someone obtains a user's password (e.g., auto-saved login credentials in browser), they would still need access to their phone to log in. 2FA helps maintain the security of data even in cases of unauthorized access to a computer (e.g., in the event of a stolen laptop or leaving it unattended in the office).

How does Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) work in tomHRM?

After enabling the 2FA feature, when logging into tomHRM, in addition to the traditional password, the user will be prompted to enter a one-time code they receive on their phone via the Google Authenticator app, which is linked to their account.

How to activate 2FA in tomHRM?

In the Settings > Parameters > Security section, you will find the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) subsection. Depending on the form chosen, it can be mandatory for all users of the application or allow the employee to manage for themselves whether they want to enable 2FA. We encourage you to enable 2FA to enhance the security of your account even further.
