# Add an Extra Layer of Security to Your Telerik Account with MFA

**[Telerik](https://daily.dev/sources/telerik)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Progress Telerik now offers multi-factor authentication (MFA) for Telerik and Kendo UI accounts that sign in with an email and password. It's optional and can be turned on or off anytime from your Telerik profile. Setup involves scanning a QR code or entering a setup key in an authenticator app like Microsoft Authenticator, Google Authenticator or Authy, then verifying a six-digit code. Enabling MFA also generates recovery codes for account access if you lose your authenticator device. Once enabled, sign-in requires your password plus the six-digit code, and MFA protection extends to other apps that use your Telerik account for authentication.

## Questions this post answers

### How do I enable multi-factor authentication on my Telerik account?

Sign in to your Telerik account, open the profile settings, and enable MFA by scanning a QR code or entering a setup key with an authenticator app such as Microsoft Authenticator, Google Authenticator, or Authy. Enter the six-digit code to verify, then save the recovery codes provided, since they're the only way back in if you lose the authenticator device.

_daily.dev keeps developers current on account security changes like Telerik's new MFA rollout._

### What happens if I lose access to my authenticator app for my Telerik account with MFA enabled?

You can sign in using a saved recovery code instead of the six-digit authenticator code. Recovery codes are issued once, right after MFA setup is verified, and should be stored securely and separately from the authentication device since they function like passwords.

_Developers tracking account recovery options for tools they rely on follow updates like this on daily.dev._
