    • Use your authenticator app to scan the QR code displayed on the ImmiAccount screen.
    • If you cannot scan the QR code you can manually enter the shared secret key displayed on the screen in your authenticator app.

Once you have set up your authenticator app with the QR code or shared secret key, you’re ready to start using MFA.

Transcript para sa pag-install ng authenticator app para sa ImmiAccount MFA

Para mapahusay ang seguridad ng iyong ImmiAccount, magse-set up tayo ng Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).

Una, i-download ang isang authenticator app, tulad ng Microsoft Authenticator, mula sa app store ng iyong device.

Buksan ang app at piliin ang opsyon para magdagdag ng bagong account. Magkakaroon ka ng opsyon na i-scan ang QR code o manu-manong i-enter ang ibinigay na key.

Pagkatapos idagdag ang account, magpo-produce ang authenticator app ng code na panandalian lang gumagana. Ilagay ang code na ito sa iyong ImmiAccount upang makumpirma.

Aktibo na ngayon ang MFA. Tandaan, kailangan mong mag-authenticate gamit ang bagong code sa bawat pag-log in sa ImmiAccount.

Subukan mong mag-log in muli para masigurado na gumagana ang set-up.

Mas ligtas na ngayon ang iyong ImmiAccount.

ImmiAccount MFA के लिए ऑथेंटिकेटर ऐप इंस्टॉल करने के लिए ट्रांसक्रिप्ट

आपके ImmiAccount की सिक्योरिटी को बढ़ाने के लिए, हम Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) सेट अप करेंगे।

सबसे पहले, अपने डिवाइस के app store से एक ऑथेंटिकेटर ऐप डाउनलोड करें जैसे कि Microsoft Authenticator।

ऐप खोलें, और नया अकाउंट जोड़ने (add a new account) के विकल्प का चयन करें। आपके पास QR कोड को स्कैन करने, या प्रदान की गई की को मैनुअल तरीके से एंटर करने का विकल्प होगा।

अकाउंट जोड़ने के बाद, ऑथेंटिकेटर ऐप एक टाइम-सेन्सेटिव कोड जेनरेट करेगी। पुष्टि करने के लिए इस कोड को अपने ImmiAccount में एंटर करें।

MFA अब सक्षम (एनेबल्ड) है। याद रखें, जब भी आपको ImmiAccount में लॉग इन करना होगा, आपको एक नए कोड के साथ ऑथेंटिकेट (प्रमाणन) करने की आवश्यकता होगी।

सेटअप टेस्ट करने के लिए फिर से लॉग इन करने की कोशिश करें।

आपका ImmiAccount अब काफी हद तक और अधिक सुरक्षित है।

为了加强ImmiAccount的安全性能，我们将设置多重要素验证（MFA）。

首先，从设备的小程序商店里下载一个验证小程序，比如Microsoft Authenticator。

打开小程序，选择添加一个新账户。您可以选择扫二维码或手动输入提供的密钥。

添加账户后，验证小程序将生成一个有时效性的代码。将这个代码输入ImmiAccount进行验证。

现在MFA已经设置好了。记住，每次登录ImmiAccount时都需要用一个新的代码进行验证。

试着重新登录，测试一下设置。

现在您的ImmiAccount的安全性能已大大提高。

 

Option 2​: Help – I need another option (email authentication)

If you do not have a mobile device or do not want to use an authenticator app you can use an email token. Email token authentication will use your ImmiAccount verified email.

Email-based authentication is less secure than using an authenticator app as email accounts can be compromised. Select this option only if absolutely necessary. Note that email notifications can be affected by your email routing or organisation security settings.

Using the email authentication option, a 6 digit code will be sent to your verified email address. Enter the code into ImmiAccount. The ‘Email authentication has been enabled’ screen will display.

​

Log in with MFA

On successful login a 6 digit code will be displayed on your authenticator app or sent to your verified email address, depending on the method you have chosen.

Your authenticator app provides a Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) which is a 6 digit code that changes every 30 seconds.

If you are using email authentication, your email token stays valid for 15 minutes.

Successful submission of an authentication code will take you to a successful login page. You can then navigate to other pages in your ImmiAccount.
