(SOLVED) 2-step verification login

[peixoto1970]

Hi,

It would be nice if Asustor add 2-step verification option to login process.
I already use it on my synology Nas.

Recently I bought a AS-602T and I am missing this option.

Thanks

Hi peixoto1970,
Thanks your suggestion. Can you specific 2-step verification option??

[peixoto1970]

On Synology Nas the 2nd step use the Google Authenticator App.
Other option is Printed codes card.

Thanks

Basically Two Factor Auth (2FA)

QNAP and Synology both use it

Is this added security from within the local network or also through the WAN side for the other NAS manufacturers?

If both, I hope it's optional if/when Asustor implements it.

Would be for both, and 2 factor is always optional, but highly recommended. It takes almost no effort to use as you can save devices you always use and not get prompted again. The benefit of 2 factor is you can have an extra layer of security on the admin web login, which is open to the world (Network Defender helps with this a bit too)

We all think this a good idea. See my post for it too:

According to an Asustor rep. they are working on it.
