Attention
Catalogic Software recommends creating a strong password and changing it regularly to enhance the product security. See the following document which outlines good password practices:
U.S. Department of Homeland Security: “Choosing and Protecting Passwords (Security Tip ST04-002)”
Multifactor authentication
In addition to the default password-based authentication, CloudCasa allows you to enable multifactor authentication (MFA) for enhanced security. This will allow you to use a time-based one-time password (TOTP) application such as Microsoft Authenticator or Google Authenticator as your second authentication factor.
When enabled, you will need to provide a 6 digit code generated by the authenticator application in addition to your password in order to log in. This prevents an unauthorized user from logging in to CloudCasa using your ID, even if they have somehow obtained your password.
To enable MFA, enable the “Configure Multifactor Authentication” setting on the User Settings page and follow the prompts.
Supported authenticator applications
Catalogic Software has qualified the following authenticator applications for both Android and iOS:
Microsoft Authenticator
Google Authenticator
Duo Mobile
