Introduction

TDM Digital Signage offers the possibility to configure multi-factor authentication based on 2FA. Once this is enabled all users need to fill in their password and also the security code generated by Google Authenticator. This application can be downloaded on your mobile phone (Android/iOS).

Important: Once this option is enabled all users need to log-in using the multi-factor authentication method. This means that all the users need to install and configure the Google Authenticator app on their phone.

Requirements

If you want to setup multi-factor authentication (2FA) you need to meet the following requirements:

• Have administrator access to the TDM designer
• All users need to have Google Authenticator installed

How To setup multi-factor authentication (2FA)

1. Please login to the designer with an administrator account: https://designer.tdmsignage.com  
   
   
2. Select “Config Panel”.
   
   
   
3. Select the tab called “Authentication Options”
   
   
   
4. On this page you have the ability to change the authentication workflow from “Use default login authentication” to “Use Google authentication to login (2FA)”.
   
   Once “Use Google authentication to login (2FA)” is selected all users will get the option to setup Google Authenticator when logging in for the first time after enabling.
   
   Now you have successfully configured multi-factor authentication. Please note that all users will need to use this new authentication method after enabling.
