2FA Two-Factor Authentication – Secure your business and data
For the safety of our customers and the protection of their data, we have introduced two-factor authentication (2FA), which is a key element of protection against cyber threats. 2FA authentication protects businesses by ensuring that all assets such as documents, confidential information and employee personnel records are properly secured. Thanks to this technology, we prevent theft, destruction or unauthorized access to internal company data.
What is two-factor authentication (2FA)?
Two-factor authentication (2FA) is an advanced identity and access management protection method that requires two independent forms of identification to access resources or data. This means that even if a cybercriminal knows the user's password, he or she will not be able to gain access to the account without additional verification. 2FA authentication is particularly important because it helps protect the most sensitive information and networks and allows companies to constantly monitor access.
Advantages of 2FA:
- Enhanced Security – Even if someone knows your password, they won't be able to access your account without the second component.
- Phishing Protection – Even if someone captures your login information, they will still need to go through additional verification.
- Reduce the risk of identity theft – Two-factor authentication makes it much more difficult for unauthorized people to access user data.
- There is no need to use a hardware token generator - Such devices often get lost. Thanks to modern technology, 2FA authentication methods have now become easier and more convenient than ever before.
- Effectiveness of code generators – 2FA code generators are more effective and secure than traditional passwords. The codes are single-use, which means they cannot be reused, and changing them frequently makes them more difficult for cybercriminals to intercept.
How does 2FA authentication work?
SMS messages, voice calls and 2FA applications can be used to confirm your identity in 2FA. These types of authentication methods provide effective protection against unauthorized access by eliminating the threat of password interception.
How do I enable 2FA authentication on One?
2FA is an additional feature that can be purchased from ONE. Follow the instructions below to enable 2FA on One:
- Log in to the One platform.
- Register the device you want to use to confirm your identity.
- To do this, scan the QR code displayed on the website.

- If the process is interrupted, it cannot be repeated. In this case, you need to reset the user.
Once you have completed the 2FA enablement process, any attempt to log in to the system will require you to confirm your identity using this method. This means that all merchant panel users will be required to log in using two-factor authentication.
Summary
Two-factor authentication (2FA) is an essential tool in today's world, where cybercrime threats are commonplace.
