How can employers enforce two-factor authentication (2FA) for their employees, contractors or company admins?

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of protection to your Remote account by requiring team members to verify their identity using a code from an authenticator app, in addition to their password.

As a company admin, you can require employees, contractors, and other admins in your company to enable 2FA. This helps enforce your company’s security policies and protect sensitive data.

1. Sign in to Remote.
2. Select Company settings from the main menu.
3. Under the Security section, select Two-factor authentication (2FA).

On the 2FA settings page, you can choose which groups must use two-factor authentication:

• Use the toggle switch next to Employees, Contractors, or Company admins to turn on enforcement for that group.
• Once enforced, those users must complete 2FA setup before accessing their Remote account or taking sensitive actions.

Once enforcement is enabled, affected users will be prompted to set up 2FA at their next login. They’ll see a message requiring them to complete the setup using an authenticator app (such as Google Authenticator or Authy).
