6.2. Enabling Two-Factor Authentication for security
To enhance cyber-security on the Partner Portal, Cisco uses two-
factor authentication (2FA).
2FA works by providing an extra security layer that works independently of
your Partner Portal login password. With 2FA activated, you will be asked
to provide a secure one-time password (OTP) for each login.
To set up two-factor authentication, do the following steps:
1. Install an app capable of generating authentication codes on your
mobile phone. Apps recommended for specific platforms are:
Google Authenticator or Authy (iPhone, Android)
Microsoft Authenticator (Windows Mobile)
2. Log into the Cisco Partner Portal using your normal access
password.
3. Hover the mouse cursor over the Profile icon in the upper right-
hand corner of the web page (Figure 10 (page 52)). Click the
Account option.

page (Figure 11 (page 52)).
