TurnKey Lender supports two-factor authentication to ensure a higher level of security for employees and borrowers using your lending platform. If two-factor authentication is enabled for the user, then by logging on to the TurnKey Lender and entering the correct password the user will be sent a one-off code (by SMS or directly to the log file in the 'trunk' project) which must be entered to log on to TurnKey Lender.

...

The use of two-factor authentication is enabled/disabled independently for Front-Office users (borrowers) and Back Office users (employees). Two-factor authentication can be enabledin the web.config file by adding the following lines. 

<!-- two factor authentication for clients -->
<add key="Enable2FactorAuthCustomers" value="true" />
 
<!-- two factor authentication for back end users(officers) -->
<add key="Enable2FactorAuthOfficers" value="true" />

. Reach out to your TurnKey Lender account manager and we'll be happy to enable it for you. 


If two-factor authentication is enabled for Front-Office users, it applies only to newly created accounts. This feature can't be enabled for Front-Office users created before it was turned on.
