# Enable and disable two factor authentication

**Purpose:**

This feature allows users to enhance or simplify the login process by turning **Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)** on or off. When enabled, users must authenticate using a mobile authenticator app (TOTP), providing an additional layer of security during login.

***

### 🚀 How to Use

You can manage your 2FA setting anytime from the EzOM Account Portal.

***

#### 📝 Step-by-Step Guide

1️⃣ **Step 1:** Login

> Sign in to your EzOM account using email and password at <https://ezom.app>

2️⃣ **Step 2:** Go to Account Settings

> Visit: <https://id.ezom.app/admin/master/console/>

3️⃣ **Step 3:** Access the Security Tab

> In the Account Security card, select the Signing in tab from the left sidebar.

4️⃣ **Step 4:** Enable or Disable 2FA

> Toggle the switch labeled “Enable Two-Factor Authentication” to:

* ✅ **Enable**: Turn on 2FA. You’ll be prompted to set up a mobile authenticator (if not already done).
* ❌ **Disable**: Turn off 2FA. You will no longer be asked for an OTP code during login.

> 🔐 Changes apply immediately and impact your next login session.

***

#### ✅ Notes & Warnings

* Enabling 2FA is **highly recommended** for securing your account.
* Disabling 2FA makes login easier but less secure.
* Once 2FA is enabled, a mobile device with an authenticator app is required for access.
