Two Factor Authentication (2FA)
We recommend the users to enable two-factor authentication to make sure your account is secure even if your login credentials are compromised. Enabling 2FA makes sure there is an additional layer of credentials which is only possessed by you either through your inbox or your device.
We offer two options on Netcore Email API
- OTP over Email
- Google Authenticator
OTP over Email
A one time password will be sent to your registered email address, which is valid for 5 mins.
If you want to receive the OTP on a different email address, you can configure the same.
