Enabling Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) in CallCabinet

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a security protocol that grants access to a digital application only after the user presents two forms of digital identification. CallCabinet utilizes an email-based 2FA method that is easily enabled on a per-user basis.

  1. From the”Home Page”, open CallCabinet’s application menu on the left hand side and select “Settings”.
  2. From the “Settings” menu that drops down, select “Users”.
