Add Second Factor (2FA)​

Add a new second factor (2FA) to the login settings of the organization. Users will have the possibility to authenticate with the configured factor afterward. Authentication factors are used as an additional factor to add more security to your users (e.g. Authentication App, FingerPrint, Windows Hello, etc). Per definition, it is called a second factor as it is used as an additional authentication after a password. In the UI we generalize this as multi-factor.
