Two-Factor authentication is highly recommended as a security precaution against unauthorized access to your account. Blesta supports both MOTP and TOTP. The following mobile applications are recommended for Android and iOS, respectively, and many others are supported as well.
For Android
- Android Token - http://code.google.com/p/androidtoken/
- Google Authenticator - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.authenticator2&hl=en
For iOS (iPhone, iPad)
- OATH Token - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/oath-token/id364017137?mt=8
- Google Authenticator - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/google-authenticator/id388497605?mt=8

Using Google Authenticator with Blesta is pretty straight forward, but requires a little manipulation to get the key in the correct format. Blesta expects TOTP keys to be in hexadecimal format (base16), but Google Authenticator uses base32. So we have to convert our Google Authenticator keys into hexadecimal before storing in Blesta. There are a number of online utilities to perform this operation. Here’s one:http://www.darkfader.net/toolbox/convert/. As an example, “PEHMPSDNLXIOG65U” (in base32) becomes “790ec7c86d5dd0e37bb4″ in hexadecimal. Simply select Time-based One Time Password as the two factor authentication method in Blesta then enter the converted (hexdecimal) value and you’re good to go. |
