Two Factor Authentication

[Abhi]

Do you use 2FA on your admin control panel ? Does your software support it ? How secure do you think Two Factor Authentication is ?

 

[admin]

I use it wherever available. Some of them are plugins. I don't trust them much. But when it is a part of the core ( which I believe it should be ), I try to use them.

 

[Abhi]

Yes, don't trust those plugins. No idea when they will turn on you. Sometimes, the original authors sells the whole project silently and then the new one could mess up a lot of things secuirty-wise.

@Abhi I do. 2FA in plesk is superb and highly secured.

 

[Abhi]

Do you use Gmail ? It has 2FA in-built.

 

[phenomlab]

@Abhi I do, but not as a primary account

 

[Abhi]

Don't be angry about my cPanel obession. But is it possible to set up 2FA in a cPanel based emails ?

 

[phenomlab]

@Abhi Doesn't see to be the case, sadly -https://features.cpanel.net/topic/webmail-2fa

 

[Abhi]

It is ok. I just asked. How about Plesk ?

@Abhi Plesk has this, yes
