Enhancing security: Introducing Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for teachers and students!?️

We're excited to roll out a significant security enhancement – Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)! 


Two-Factor Authentication adds an additional layer of security to your EzyCourse account. This means that in addition to your regular password, you'll need a second form of verification to log in – making it significantly harder for unauthorized access.



? How to set up 2FA?

Enabling 2FA is a breeze. Just navigate to "Site Settings," then "Settings," and finally "Authentication Settings." Here, you'll find the option to enable Two-Factor Authentication. 



On the Student dashboard, find it under the “Profile” section.




We offer support for several popular authentication apps, including Authy, Google Authenticator, and Microsoft Authenticator. Choose the one that suits you, follow the simple setup process, and you're all set!


? Supported Applications

You can use various applications across different platforms to set up 2FA:


Authy: iPhone, Android, Chrome, Linux, OS X, BlackBerry.

Google Authenticator: iPhone, Android.

Microsoft Authenticator: Windows Phone, Android.



? Upcoming: Device Login Restrictions

We're not stopping here. We're actively working on further enhancing your security through Device Login Restrictions. This means even more control over where and how your EzyCourse account is accessed, providing you with the peace of mind you deserve.
