Enabling two-step verification for your own account

Before you enable two-step verification for your account, ensure that an authenticator app is installed on the mobile device. Ensure that the time set in the authenticator app is synchronized with the time of Administration Server.

To enable two-step verification for your account:

1. In the Kaspersky Security Center console tree, open the context menu of the Administration Server folder, and then select Properties.
2. In the Administration Server properties window, go to the Sections pane and select Advanced, and then Two-step verification.
3. In the Two-step verification section, click the Set up button.

   If two-step verification is already enabled for your account, clicking the Set up button resets the secret key so you can re-configure two-step verification.

   In the two-step verification properties window that opens, the secret key is displayed.

4. Enter the secret key in the authenticator app to receive one-time security code. You can specify the secret key into the authenticator app manually or scan the QR code by the authenticator app on the mobile device.
5. Specify the security code generated by the authenticator app, and then click the OK button to exit the two-step verification properties window.
6. Click the Apply button.
7. Click the OK button.

Two-step verification is enabled for your own account.
