   All asterisk fields are mandatory to enter.
5. Select the Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) if required.
   By default, the Email-based OTP option is enabled for the user, select the SMS-based OTP if required. If the SMS-based OTP option is enabled for the user then that user will get the OTP on the email address as well as on the user’s registered mobile number. Before that, the user needs to verify the mobile number from Edit Profile Section.

   Note:

   • Only the Super Administrator can Enable/Disable 2FA for users.

   • When the Super Administrator enables 2FA for users, the users receive an email notification. Subsequently, every time the user logs in, they are required to provide an OTP that is sent to their registered mobile device or email address in order to access the MSSP portal.

Activating a newly added User

After Admin has created a user account as mentioned in above procedure, an email with Set password link is sent to the registered email address. The newly added user must access the mail and set the password from the password link to login to the new account.

Sign In

   Note The OTP is valid for 60 seconds only.
   The dashboard is displayed.

Using Two Factor Authentication (2FA)

With MSSP 3.1 release dated 22/04/2023, the earlier Google Authenticator App based 2FA process has been eliminated. Now we have introduced Simple MFA with Email and SMS based OTP. By default, you will receive the OTP on your registered email address.
As a security enhancement, the Super administrator has the ability to enable 2FA for users. This feature requires a two-step verification process, thereby providing a higher level of security for the user’s account. Apart from the regular username and password, the user must also provide an OTP that is generated on their email address or registered mobile number.

Note:
At present, SMS-based OTP authentication is available for mobile numbers with ISD code +91. This means that users with mobile numbers registered in India can receive a one-time password via SMS for authentication purposes.

1. Login to the MSSP portal using your regular username (email) and password.



2. The Two-factor Authentication screen appears.
   Note:
   If 2FA authentication is not enabled, then the 2FA Authentication screen does not appear and you are automatically logged in to the MSSP portal.



3. Enter the OTP sent to your registered email or mobile number. This OTP is valid for only 60 seconds.
4. Click Verify.
   You will be logged in to the MSSP portal.

   Note:
   • 2FA is enabled for Super admin role for all new tenants by default. When Super admin creates any user, he can enable 2FA for that user. Users will be notified by an email when Super admin enables or disables 2FA for any user.
