[DBTech] Two-Factor Authentication (vB4)
 

Two-Factor Authentication lets you ensure only trusted networks have access to your account, by using your smartphone to validate login attempts from new IP addresses.


Why use Two-Factor Authentication?

The most common form of "hacking" a forum today is someone guessing or in some other way gaining access to the password to an administrator account. Even with password protection on your AdminCP and ModCP directory, irreparable harm can be done with an administrator account without needing to log in to any of these locations. Enabling two-factor authentication ensures that only trusted networks can access the accounts of your staff as well as your members.

Our two-factor authentication mod uses Google Authenticator to pair a member's forum account with their smartphone app. A "Recovery Key" shown on-screen during setup ensures that if a member should ever lose their phone, they can regain access to their account.

Thank you so much..

I really like two factor auth, just like fb with the sms auth code.

i think it will be best if we can have alternative two factor auth
like email auth so other who dont prefer to link their phone with their
account can use email auth instead

anyway it a great idea and i been looking for something similar for sometime

Is there anyway to see through the AdminCP to see if the user is using the Two-Factor Authentication? Great mod btw.

Unfortunately not at this time. We might introduce a read-only display (something like "Authenticator Activated? Yes/No"), though :)

I decided to rename the class name in order to avoid class name collision, in the event that the user were experimenting with multiple different Two-Factor Authentication modifications to figure out which one is right for their forum.

Indeed, mobile / Tapatalk support would rock! I do have a question though. Is it possible that you can add something like the XenForo's 2-factor auth?

Showing last devices, etc. I love the way that this works perfectly with steam login.
