Greetings,

Is there a possibility of enabling 2-factor authentication in the XNAT login? (mobile/email  OTP or Microsoft authenticator)?

Has anyone modified the XNAT UI? (I was looking at flywheel demo videos and it looks way sleek compared to XNAT :)


Warm Regards
Akshaykumar

Hi Akshaykumar,

I'm not super familiar with how it works, but there is an MFA plugin that's open source: https://bitbucket.org/xnatx/mfa_plugin/src/main/ .

Thanks,
Charlie Moore

Dear Akshaykumar,

Have you managed to implement 2-factor authentication? I tried here by compiling it and inserting it into the xnat plugin folder, but it did not recognize it, generating a 404.

We are actually actively working on an update to this plugin now. The original version of the MFA plugin was developed for a customer deployment, and the open-sourced version that Charlie referenced hasn't been widely QA'ed or distributed. I expect that we'll have an updated release soon.

Hi 

This will enhance Xnat's Security and cause more adoption. Hoping a functioning MFA plugin is released soon.

Hi all, just following up with good news here, we have released an initial open source version of the MFA plugin. We would love to hear about any initial experiences with implementing and using it on your XNAT systems.
