Authenticator App - Novaz

HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud 2FA Setup Guide

app.vagrantup.com Supported

Enable two-factor authentication on HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud asks for a rotating code from Authenticator App - Novaz in addition to your password.

A HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud account can expose source code, deploy keys, and infrastructure — prime targets for attackers. Besides an authenticator app, HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud also offers SMS text codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience — and it's safer than SMS codes, which can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks.

2FA methods HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud supports

  • SMS text message
  • Authenticator app (TOTP)

Menu names on HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud can change — the official HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.

How to recover your HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud account

If you lose access to your authenticator and HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud 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 HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud doesn't, or you didn't save them, use HashiCorp Vagrant Cloud's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
