Concerning QNAP Authenticator Designed to enhance your account security on QNAP devices.
[Requirements]
– Android version 8 or later – A QNAP NAS equipped with QTS 5.1.0 or later QNAP Authenticator is a free app that uses your mobile device to verify your login to increase account security. You can choose from a variety of ways to verify your identity, including 2-Step Verification or Passwordless Login. Important aspects of the QNAP Authenticator:
– Enables Passwordless Login and 2-Step Verification – Allows users to quickly add an account by scanning a QR code – Supports the following methods of verification: 1. Login Approval: With just a tap, you can approve a login request. 2. QR Code: To validate a login request, scan a QR code. 3. Online Verification Code: Receive a code sent from your QNAP device for verification
4. Time-based one-time password (TOTP): Automatically generate a verification code. While TOTP can be used without a connection, Login Approval, the QR Code, and the Online Verification Code all require a connection to your NAS. Third-party accounts from Google, Microsoft, Facebook, GitHub, and other service providers that have adopted the TOTP standard for authentication can also be verified using this approach.
