Two Factor Authentication - Enabling for Employees

Two Factor Authentication is an option that can be enabled as a feature for employees of BrightPay Connect. Two Factor Authentication is a second layer of protection to re-confirm the identity for employees logging into BrightPay Connect through an internet browser or through the Employee Self Service App. This improves security, protects against fraud and lowers the risk of data breaches as employees can access sensitive data in Connect with the increased security layer.

Two Factor Authentication can be enabled for all employees of a single employer on a Connect account.

A user can sign into the Connect account and select the Employer, then select Settings tab in the Employer and then select Two-Factor Authentication.

Tick the box for ‘Enable two-factor authentication’ and Save Changes. When any employee on the Connect account tries to sign into Connect via the internet browser or through the Employee Self Service App they will have to enter the security code sent by email as a second security feature.
