It's more important than ever to ensure your company's security in online spaces. Humi helps make this easy by offering a simple switch to enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). Once turned on, employees will need to pass through an additional verification step (one-time passcode) when logging into Humi.

How to Turn On Multi-Factor Authentication
- In Settings, head to the Sign-In tab
- Scroll down to Multi-Factor Authentication
- Click the Toggle, so it shows the colour green
-
Select the Roles you’d like to enforce MFA for
- You can select as many or as few as you’d like
- Any roles that aren’t selected will be able to log in to Humi without the use of MFA
- If you ever need to turn off Multi-Factor Authentication, simply return to this page and disable the toggle so it shows the colour grey
How to Log In with Multi-Factor Authentication
There are three ways that a user can log in using MFA:
-
Authenticator App (Preferred)
This is the preferred method as it’s often considered the most secure.-
Using an authenticator app on their mobile device, users can scan the QR Code during login to generate a one-time passcode.
-
Once Humi has been added to their verification app, they'll need to enter a one-time passcode from their authenticator app each time they sign in to Humi.
-
-
Email Confirmation
Alternatively, users can send a one-time passcode to themselves via email. -
Text Confirmation
Lastly, users can send a one-time passcode to themselves via text message.
Does Multi-Factor Authentication Apply to the Mobile App?
Yes. If a user has any role where MFA has been enabled/enforced, they will need to go through the additional verification step when logging into the Humi Mobile App.
Curious about Single Sign-On (SSO)?
If you want to up your security even further, you can enable SSO to ensure users are accessing their Humi accounts through your chosen provider: Microsoft/Microsoft Azure AD, Google/Google Workspace or Okta.
