With security ever-increasing for web-based software, policies for businesses include expectations for working within secure environments. To address the security needs of its customers, TrueCommerce offers Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) as a core security feature.
What is Multi-Factor Authentication?
When you log in to the Foundry platform, you are proving that you are who you say you are. Traditionally, that has been accomplished with a username and a password, which TrueCommerce has made more secure with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).
Most online services--banks, social media, shopping, and other sites--have added a way for your accounts to be more secure. You may also hear MFA referred to as "Two-Step Verification," but it is the same idea, providing for greater protection of sensitive information and a secure login experience. When you sign into the TrueCommerce Foundry platform for the first time on a new device or application (like a web browser), you need more than just the Username and Password. You need to provide an additional "factor" to prove who you are, like a Time-Based One-Time Password (TOTP) code that you then input to confirm it is, in fact, you.
