Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for Your Account
How to enable 2FA (2-factor authentication) for added security to your MXT account
Enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your MXT account by requiring a second verification step when you log in.
You can choose to receive a one-time password (OTP) via SMS text message to your registered mobile number or use an authenticator app of your choice to generate your authentication code.
Note: If you choose SMS authentication, ensure your registered mobile number is up to date. You can update your mobile number by navigating to Contact Information in MXT.
To Enable 2FA:
1. Log in to MXT and click the cog icon in the top-right corner to access Settings.
2. Under Settings, select Security.
3. Locate the two-factor authentication settings and choose your preferred authentication method:
- Authenticator App: Use an authenticator app of your choice to generate verification codes.
- Text Message Authentication: Receive a one-time password (OTP) via SMS to your registered mobile number.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to configure your chosen authentication method.
5. Complete the verification process to activate 2FA for your account.
