🔒 How to Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) on Your iiniit Account

Adding Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) to your iiniit account adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification when you log in. This helps protect your account even if your password is compromised.


Why Enable 2FA?

  • Enhanced security: Prevent unauthorized access

  • Protection against phishing: Even if your password is stolen, your account stays safe

  • Peace of mind: Know your data is better protected


🧭 How to Enable 2FA on iiniit

1. Log In to Your Account

Go to https://iiniit.com/login and enter your email and password.


2. Navigate to Security Settings

  • Click your profile icon in the top-right corner.

  • Select “Settings” or “Account Settings.”

  • Go to the “Security” tab or directly visit https://iiniit.com/account/security.


3. Find the Two-Factor Authentication Section

Look for the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) section and click “Enable” or “Set Up 2FA.”


4. Choose Your 2FA Method

iiniit supports common 2FA methods, such as:

  • Authenticator App (recommended): Use apps like Google Authenticator, Authy, or Microsoft Authenticator.

  • SMS Verification: Receive a code via text message (availability may vary).


5. Set Up Using an Authenticator App (Recommended)

  • Open your preferred authenticator app on your mobile device.

  • Scan the QR code displayed on the iiniit 2FA setup page.

  • Alternatively, enter the manual setup key provided.

  • The app will generate a 6-digit verification code.


6. Verify Your 2FA Setup

  • Enter the 6-digit code from your authenticator app into the iiniit website.

  • Click “Verify” or “Confirm.”

If successful, 2FA will be enabled on your account.


7. Save Your Backup Codes

iiniit will provide backup codes that you can use to access your account if you lose access to your 2FA device.

  • Download or write down these codes.

  • Store them in a safe, secure place.


✅ What Happens After 2FA is Enabled?

  • At each login, after entering your password, you will be prompted to enter a 6-digit code from your authenticator app or SMS.

  • This step helps verify your identity and keeps your account secure.


🔄 How to Disable 2FA

If you ever need to disable 2FA:

  • Go back to Account Security.
