Hi,

Is there any ability to implement MFA for logging into a Vocbench instance? If not is there any intention to look at this going forward?

Thanks,

Will

Dear Will,

VocBench does not implement multi-factor authentication itself; instead, it relies on a separate identity provider (IdP), such as Keycloak, to provide this functionality.

Currently, VocBench can interact with an IdP using the SAML protocol (https://vocbench.uniroma2.it/doc/sys/#saml_authentication), but the upcoming release will also include support for OpenID Connect and OAuth. Since Keycloak and most IdPs support both protocols, this should not be a concern for you.

Please refer to the Keycloak documentation for instructions on configuring one-time passwords (https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_admin/index.html#one-time-password-otp-policies), which are a form of two-factor authentication.

Best regards,

Manuel
