Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a common way to secure accounts by adding an additional layer of security. Your data and your account are protected even when your password is compromised as you must also have access to the physical device (e.g., phone, computer) that you used to set up your account. MFA is a key piece of any enterprise-grade security plan - you can learn more about this practice from leading security organizations like Okta and Duo.

QuantAQ's self-enrollment process makes it easy to register your phone, computer, or tablet as a second layer of protection.

QuantAQ prompts you to enroll post-login. If you would like, you can bypass enrollment by clicking Setup MFA Later, though enrolling will be mandatory by December 1st, 2023.

Currently, QuantAQ requires an authenticator app on your smartphone such as Authy, Google Authenticator, or Duo Mobile. For instructions on using a web browser-based solution, see the instructions below on Enrolling Your Desktop or Laptop Computer.

Using your authenticator app, scan the QR code shown on the screen. On your mobile device, a verification code (6 digits) will appear. Enter the 6-digit code into the Verification Code text field on your screen and click Submit.

Your device is now ready to help you log in securely and keep your account protected. When logging in to the QuantAQ Cloud, you will be asked to enter a verification code from your linked device.

If you don't have access to - or prefer not to use - a smartphone, there are browser-based extensions such as Authenticator that allow you to use your browser as your second form of authentication. Before enrolling your device, you will need to follow the instructions provided by the authentication extension of your choice to install the extension in your browser.

Click the blue Continue button to begin enrolling your device.

Click the QR Code extension icon in your browser to begin the setup process. Follow the on-screen instructions and drag the QR Code box across the entirety of the QR Code to capture it. Enter the 6-digit code into the Verification Code text field on your screen and click Submit.

Your device is now ready to help you log in securely and keep your account protected. When logging in to the QuantAQ Cloud, you will be asked to enter a verification code from your linked device.
