Setting Up Two-Factor Authentication: Okta Verify

Constant Contact supports and recommends two-factor authentication, as it vastly improves account security. Constant Contact's two-factor authentication works together with applicable authenticator applications to generate a security token. When passwords and security tokens are used together, it becomes much more difficult to lose control of an account.

This article will detail how to configure two-factor authentication using Okta Verify.

Administrators Must Enable Two-Factor Authentication

Lead Gen & CRM instance administrators must enable two-factor authentication for all users. Once enabled, users will be able to select their preferred method of two-factor authentication, including Okta Verify, the Google Authentication App, SMS message or phone call authentication. 

After the initial setup process, that method can be used to log in to the Lead Gen & CRM instance going forward.
