# Does SciNote Support Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)?

## SciNote supports two-factor authentication that provides an extra layer of security.

 Please follow the steps below to enable it from your My profile page in SciNote.

1.  **Navigate** to **Account icon,** and **My profile** settings as seen in the image below. [![2fa](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hs-fs/hubfs/2fa.png?width=655&height=292&name=2fa.png)](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hubfs/KB%20article%20screenshots/SSO_1.png?hsLang=en)
2. In the next step, you will have to **choose and install** the **preferred Authenticator App** on your mobile device ( Google authenticator, Microsoft authenticator, and 2FA authenticator)[![](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/support.scinote.nethcarticle_attachments3600158523992f1-1.png)](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hubfs/KB%20article%20screenshots/authenticator%20app.png?hsLang=en)
3. In the next step, you have to **scan** the **QR code** with your app to **add the 2FA** to your authenticator as seen in the image below. [![](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/support.scinote.nethcarticle_attachments3600158302802fa2-1.png)](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hubfs/KB%20article%20screenshots/authenticator%20app.png?hsLang=en)
4.  A **code will appear** on your app and you have to **enter it in the next step.** [![](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/support.scinote.nethcarticle_attachments3600158524592fa4-1.png)](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hubfs/KB%20article%20screenshots/auth%20app%20code.png?hsLang=en)
5. As a last step, you will receive a list of bypass codes from SciNote that you can use to log in in case you aren't able to access the access code provided by your authentication app. Click **Download codes** and store these in a safe location. 
     1. ![SciNote 2FA Bypass Codes](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hs-fs/hubfs/SciNote%202FA%20Bypass%20Codes.jpg?width=537&height=446&name=SciNote%202FA%20Bypass%20Codes.jpg) 
     2. **\*Note** – You only receive 6 backup/bypass codes and each one can only be used once. If you need more, disable 2FA for your SciNote account and restart the 2FA setup process to receive a new set of 6 codes.

The Organization Administrator can reset two-factor authentication (2FA) for the other SciNote team members from the Members table. This would require the user to re-set up their 2FA if needed.
