Two-Factor Authentication

edjufy offers you the option to set up two-factor authentication (2FA for short) for enhanced protection of your edjufy account. With two-factor authentication enabled, you will need a six-digit code in addition to your email address and password when logging in - the so-called second factor. This code is generated using a corresponding smartphone app.

edjufy uses the widely adopted standard TOTP (Time-based One-time Password Algorithm) for this. This method is supported by all common authentication apps.

We can recommend the following apps for two-factor authentication:

  1. Google Authenticator (iOS App | Android App)
  2. Microsoft Authenticator (iOS App | Android App)
  3. Twilio Authy (iOS App | Android App)
