Authenticator App - Novaz

SecurityTrails 2FA Setup with an Authenticator App

securitytrails.com Supported

Protect your SecurityTrails account with two-factor authentication (2FA). Once enabled, signing in also requires a one-time code from your authenticator app — not just your password.

A SecurityTrails account is part of your security setup, so it deserves strong 2FA of its own. SecurityTrails secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

2FA methods SecurityTrails supports

  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  1. 1

    Download Authenticator App - Novaz

    Install Authenticator App - Novaz from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad and open it — you'll use it to scan SecurityTrails's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to SecurityTrails and open your SecurityTrails account security settings.

  3. 3

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

    Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.

  4. 4

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

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

  5. 5

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code Authenticator App - Novaz generates to verify and link your SecurityTrails account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your SecurityTrails account

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