5.4 Two-factors Authentication

With the Wilson app, you can enable two-factor authentication by first configuring it in the user settings, as explained in Chapter 2.7.2 Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).

Two-factor authentication can be done in two ways:

  • via device code sent by email (a 6-digit number to be entered when prompted)
  • through biometric fingerprint or face registered on your mobile device

With active two-factor authentication (2FA), when accessing the Wilson app, an action will be required from the user

In this screen, you need to enter the code that you chose during the activation of the function (ranging from 4 to 8 digits).
