| 22 | |||
| 23 | To gain access to our eMagiz platform you need a valid user and to properly secure login into our platform multi-factor authentication is required. In this microlearning, we will learn how to configure MFA for your user account so you can start your journey into eMagiz. | ||

| 25 | At the moment, the eMagiz portal is secured in such a way that MFA is required upon login. Therefore it is mandatory to activate MFA on your user account. Note that the MFA is valid for 8 hours except for logging out. When you log out, the MFA code is automatically expired. This means that when you log in again within that timeframe, you still need to provide the MFA code again. | ||
