Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)
MFA is important because it adds an extra layer of security to your organization's accounts and data. Even if a malicious actor obtains a user's password, they would still need the additional verification factors to gain access. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and helps protect your organization's data.
For Users
Set Up MFA
The organization administrator can configure MFA to be required in your organization. Once the setting is enabled, any user logging in will need to set up the MFA for their individual account to gain access to LOGiCAL. This is done during the login. As a prerequisite, you need an authenticator app installed on your device. Please see Supported authenticator apps for details.
- Log in to your myBeamex account with your credentials.
- The login window will continue to the MFA setup.
- Open the authenticator app and use it to take a picture of the QR code provided by the login window. If that is not possible, you can enter the details also manually by clicking the “I can’t scan the code”.
- Follow the instructions in the app to complete the setup.
- Once set up in the authenticator app, click "I have completed the scan".
- Authenticate yourself by providing the code from your authenticator app.
- You can now access LOGiCAL.
Daily Usage
After setting up MFA, in your day-to-day work, you will be requested to provide a code that you get from your authenticator app when you login.
