Enhance your certiblok account security with two factor authentication

With the increase in cyber threats, it becomes essential to adopt advanced protection measures to safeguard your information, such as two-factor authentication (2FA). Certiblok offers various features to ensure maximum data security. Among these, one of the most important is two-factor authentication (2FA), a function that adds an extra layer of security to your account.

What is Two-Factor Authentication?

Two-factor authentication is an identity verification process that requires two different authentication methods from two distinct categories of credentials: something the user knows (like a password) and something the user possesses (like a mobile device). This approach significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access since even if a malicious actor obtains the user’s password, they would need the second factor to complete the login.

How to Enable Two-Factor Authentication on Certiblok

Certiblok makes it easy to enable 2FA through an intuitive and quick procedure. Here is a step-by-step guide to activate this security feature on your account:

1. Access the Dashboard

Log in to your Certiblok dashboard. Here you will find a clearly visible button indicating the status of two-factor authentication: red when it is not active and green when it is activated. Click on the button to start the configuration process.

2. Scarica un’Applicazione di Autenticazione

To proceed, you need to download an application for generating verification tokens, such as Google Authenticator (iOS – Android), Authy (iOS – Android), or Microsoft Authenticator (iOS – Android), available on the App Store and Google Play. These apps generate temporary codes that will serve as the second factor of authentication.

3. Scan the QR Code

Once you have downloaded the application, click on “Continue” on the Certiblok platform. A QR code will appear, which you need to scan using the authentication app. Open the application on your mobile device, select the option to add a new account, and scan the QR code displayed on the Certiblok screen.

4. Enter the Generated Code

After scanning the QR code, the authentication app will generate a temporary code. Enter this code in the required field on the Certiblok platform and click on “Confirm.” At this point, two-factor authentication will be active on your account.

5. Two-Factor Authentication Verification

Each time you log in to your Certiblok account, in addition to your password, you will be required to enter the temporary code generated by the authentication app. This ensures that only you can access your account, even if your password is compromised.

### Advantages of Two-Factor Authentication

#### 1. Enhanced Security

Implementing 2FA adds an extra layer of security, drastically reducing the risk of unauthorized access. Even if a malicious actor manages to obtain your password, they cannot access your account without the second authentication factor.

#### 2. Protection of Sensitive Data

Certiblok is designed to manage sensitive and confidential documents. Using 2FA ensures that only authorized individuals can access such information, protecting the data from potential breaches.

#### 3. Ease of Use

Despite the increased security, two-factor authentication is easy to use. Once set up, accessing your account takes only a few seconds more but offers significantly greater protection.

### Security Integrated into Blockchain

Certiblok’s platform goes beyond two-factor authentication to ensure security. It uses blockchain technology to protect uploaded documents. Each file is divided into 80 smaller fragments, encrypted with AES 256, and distributed across a network of 26,000 nodes monitored by the Ethereum blockchain. This makes the data practically inaccessible to external attacks and ensures the integrity of the documents.

### Additional Features

– **DRM (Document Relationship Management)**: Certiblok offers an advanced document management system that includes features such as document ownership identification, deadline management, document versioning, secure sharing, and audit rooms.

– **Edit Room**: A collaborative environment where you can securely share and edit documents, with the option to export them once the work is completed.

– **QR Code**: Automatic generation of QR codes to facilitate document sharing, configurable as “Public” or “Private” depending on security needs.

Two-factor authentication is a crucial element for protecting your Certiblok account and your sensitive data. Activating it is simple and quick but provides a significant boost to security. Join Certiblok in the revolution of secure document management and protect your information with the highest level of security available. Activate two-factor authentication on your Certiblok account today and rest easy knowing your data is safe.
