Overview

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is an authentication system that requires a user to provide two or more verification factors for successful authentication, and is one of the most effective ways to protect valuable information and accounts against unauthorised access.

The Meshed Platform login process can be enhanced by enabling Multi-factor authentication (MFA).  

Meshed Platform Multi-factor authentication (MFA) functionality overview:

  • MFA is enabled or disabled systemwide.
  • Only SAdmin Users can configure MFA.
  • Only SAdmin Users can enable or disable MFA for Users (Staff, Students, Teachers, Agents)
  • Only SAdmin Users can manage MFA for enabled Users
  • Uses a 6 digit One Time Passcode (OTP) for logging in. 
  • User OTP is provided via email. The OTP is a unique password that expires and can only be used once, as the name suggests.
  • User can resend a new OTP


By default the Meshed Platform Multi-factor Authentication functionality is disabled.
