Protect important accounts

Add a second check before an account can continue.

Let people protect important accounts with time-based one-time codes that complement their password and existing application identity.

Two-factor authentication in a product

Sign in normallyThe password establishes the first factor

Ask for a current codeThe person's authenticator provides another proof

Open the sessionThe product continues only after verification

Require a time-based one-time code after password verification.

01Strengthen account accessRequire another proof beyond the password.

02Keep the flow connectedSecond-factor status belongs to the same user account.

03Support recovery planningMake enrollment and verification explicit parts of the product.

Why it matters

Some accounts deserve more than one secret between them and sensitive work.

Require a second verification factor for administrators, operators, and high-value customer accounts. A second factor makes that password insufficient on its own.

Daptin provides actions to register and verify time-based one-time passwords for an account. The challenge becomes part of the authentication journey before the application accepts the session as fully verified.

This is especially useful when the same account can change permissions, run powerful actions, view private files, or manage provider credentials.

Raise the cost of account takeover

Require a current code held by the person in addition to their password.

Protect high-impact roles

Offer or require stronger verification for administrators and sensitive workflows.

Keep identity coherent

Use the same account, groups, and permission context after the second factor succeeds.

How it fits

Part of one connected backend.

Two-factor authentication does more when it can reuse the records, people, access rules, and workflows already in your application.

Step 1Enroll

The account registers an authenticator secret.

Step 2Challenge

Sign-in asks for a current one-time code.

Step 3Verify

Daptin checks the code and its replay or attempt boundaries.

Step 4Continue

The verified session reaches ordinary product permissions.

What it enables

Use it in products people recognize.

Start from the experience you want to create; the backend capability supports the work behind it.

Administrator access

Require a second factor before backend management.

Sensitive customer portal

Protect financial, legal, or health-related records.

Provider management

Add friction before people reach credentials and integrations.

Connected by design

Protect administrator, operator, and high-value customer accounts with a second verification factor.

These capabilities share the same application context, so each one makes two-factor authentication more useful.

Know the boundary

What Daptin leaves in your hands.

Combine two-factor verification with secure sessions, account recovery, rate controls, support checks, and administrator protection. Teams define enrollment, recovery codes, device-replacement support, rate controls, sessions, and role enforcement.
