Enable/disable two-factor authentication for all users


You can enable or disable two-factor authentication for all users.

Warning
Enabling two-factor authentication locks out all editors until they can enter an authentication password. Ensure that your editors are trained and have an authenticator installed on their phones before enabling two-factor authentication at the system level.

To enable two-factor authentication:

  1. Click menu> Admin > Sites & Settings > Sites > Global.
  2. Click search, located to the left of more_horiz, and type Two-Factor Authentication Required.
  3. Toggle on the setting.
  4. Click Save.
  5. In the Enable Two-Factor Authentication widget, scan the QR code with your device. Your device displays an authentication code.
  6. In the Code field, enter the authentication code.
  7. Click Verify.

To disable two-factor authentication:

  1. Click menu> Admin > Sites & Settings > Sites > Global.
  2. Click search, located to the left of more_horiz, and type Two-Factor Authentication Required.
  3. Toggle off the setting.
  4. Click Save.

Note
Individual roles and editors can enable two-factor authentication even if it is not required at the system level. For details, see Enable/disable two-factor authentication by role and Enabling two-factor authentication in your profile.
