MFA
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a security system that requires more than one piece of evidence (known as a ‘factor’) to authenticate the user for login or other transaction.
Entering your username and one password alone is considered a single-factor authentication. MFA adds a second level of authentication to an account login, decreasing the likelihood that others can compromise your account.
With Autopay Online Plus MFA the factors (evidence of identity) are:
- Something you know, your user name and password.
- Something you have, a one-time passcode (OTP) from the hardware key fob or mobile app.
How it works
When you log in to Autopay Online Plus, as well as your user name and password you must additionally enter the one-time passcode generated by the key fob or mobile app.
The key fobs are ideal for authentication applications where portability and ease of use are paramount. These small devices fit comfortably on a key ring in any pocket or purse. A simple push of a button generates a one-time passcode. These tamper-resistant devices can be used wherever strong authentication is required.
If using the mobile app, download once registered with the NatWest Autopay Online Plus by scanning an on-screen QR code, each time you go into the app or refresh a one-time passcode is generated. The app can be downloaded from the Apple app store, or Google Play store for Android devices without charge.
MFA options
A user can be configured to use either mobile app or key fob MFA when accessing NatWest Autopay Online Plus.
- Mobile app - A user needs user name, password and codes generated by the mobile app.
- Hardware - A user needs user name, password and codes generated by a key fob.
Note: Hardware MFA will only be available if it has been enabled for your tenant and you have purchased key fobs.
The selected MFA option for a user is available on the Users screen. The serial number will also be available once a key fob user has registered their serial number during the MFA setup process.
Setting a user to have MFA
-
Log into the system as an administrator.
-
From the settings menu ('cog' icon) select Users.
-
On the Users screen select the user's email address in the Email column.
-
From the drop down for Two-step verification token select Mobile app or Hardware.
-
Click Save changes.
The next time the user logs in to the solution they will be prompted to enter the necessary details depending on the MFA setting.
