 +====== Two Factor Authentication ======
  
 +An additional **factor authentification** is an option available to each user, which enables functionality that requires a combination of two separate factors of identification in order to **log** into the system. Besides regular login credentials (operator code, login and password) the user has to obtain 6-digit authentification code to log into Leon. This functionality is a measure of additional security of the user account. 
 +
 +
 +Enabling the two-factor authentication mechanism:
 +
 +
 +
 +   - Mark the checkbox **Two-factor authentification** in the user's profile and confirm by updating the page. {{ :leon:user-profile:2faa.png?nolink|}}
 +   - Check your work email INBOX for the new email from Leon. The email will include the change of password as well as the link that will allow you to **pair the mobile device with Leon** via **Google Authenticator** app. 
 +   - Download a mobile app **Google Authenticator** (available for iOS and Android) or similar. {{ :leon:user-profile:google auth.png|}}
 +   - Pair your app with Leon by using the QR code generated via "Pair your mobile device with Leon!" link received in an email.
 +   - Log into Leon as usual - when the pop-up window requiring authentification code comes up, use the code generated by the app.
 +
 +It is possible to **mark two-factor authentication for all the users at once**. To do that, you need to go to the ' Settings' > 'General Settings' section and mark **'Force two factor authentication for all users'** checkbox. The checkbox is unticked by default.
 +
 +{{:leon:user-profile:Force 2FA.png?nolink|}}

 +<box>**Each code is valid for 60 seconds only. After this time a new code will be issued. Make sure to enter the code and confirm before the 60 seconds period passes.**</box>
