Corporate Finance Institute 2FA Setup Guide

corporatefinanceinstitute.com Supported

Corporate Finance Institute supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your Corporate Finance Institute account.

A Corporate Finance Institute account holds coursework, records, and personal data worth protecting with 2FA. Corporate Finance Institute secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

2FA methods Corporate Finance Institute supports

  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  1. 1

    Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.

  4. 4

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

    Open Authenticator App - Novaz, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Corporate Finance Institute displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

    If Corporate Finance Institute shows backup or recovery codes, store them somewhere safe, away from your phone. If it doesn't, check how Corporate Finance Institute recovers accounts (support, an admin, or another sign-in method) before you need it.

Menu names on Corporate Finance Institute can change — the official Corporate Finance Institute 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.

How to recover your Corporate Finance Institute account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Corporate Finance Institute gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If Corporate Finance Institute doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Corporate Finance Institute's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
