How to set up two-factor authentication (2FA) for your organization?

What is 2FA?

Two-factor authentication (2FA) for the organization is a security feature that requires a second verification step, in addition to the password, to access the organization's settings and resources in GITA. With 2FA enabled, even if a user's password is compromised, an additional code sent by email will be required to complete access, significantly increasing protection against unauthorized access.

  1. On the GITA Home, click on the gear icon or directly on the organization's name where you want to enable two-factor authentication:

  6. After the last step, a message will be sent to the respective email registered as the Gita user, and then two-factor authentication for your organization will be completed. It is important to remember that to continue accessing the organization, the user must also enable 2FA on their personal account if it is not already enabled.
