2FA methods

Can I use Email 2FA and TOTP together?

One primary two-factor method is active on a UKC login at a time. You can switch methods, but a normal login will not ask for both an email code and an authenticator code.

Login behavior

The selected module provides the second-factor challenge

UKC Email 2FA sends a code to the login email. Time Based Tokens asks for the current code from the enrolled authenticator app.

Switch methods

Change the configuration from Security Settings

Make sure the replacement method is available before disabling the current one. Complete its verification and test a fresh login immediately.

Recovery

A backup code is separate from the primary method

Keep it outside the normal login device. It provides a recovery route if email or the authenticator becomes unavailable.
