We are happy to announce that Thinfinity® Workspace now supports 2FA natively in all its editions.

Thinfinity now counts with a built-in HTOP/TOTP server that enables you the advantage to add an extra layer of security to your projects using free and paid 3rd party Identity platforms.

Supported platforms:

  • Google Authenticator
  • DUO Mobile
  • Microsoft Authenticator
  • Okta Verify
