Frequently asked questions
Q: What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?
A: MFA is a security mechanism that requires two or more authenticators to verify identity when logging into an account. This adds an extra layer of security beyond just a username and password.
Q: Why is MFA important?
A: MFA significantly enhances account security by making it much harder for unauthorised users to gain access, even if they have the password.
Q: What types of MFA will be used?
A: For the client portal, you can choose from three options including email authentication, Okta Verify, or Google/Microsoft Authenticator (you can download these apps for free from your phone’s app store).
Q: How do I set up MFA?
A: When you next log into the Wrap client portal, you'll be prompted to set up MFA. You'll have the option to choose one of three options - email authentication, Okta Verify, or Google/Microsoft Authenticator. More than one can be chosen following initial set up by logging into the client portal and selecting ‘Change password’ from the ‘Security Details’ tab under ‘Your Profile’.
Q: Will MFA be required every time I log in?
A: Yes, MFA is required each time you log in. It helps ensure that your account remains secure without being inconvenient.
Q: Is there a 'remember me' capability so I don’t need to keep using MFA?
A: No - it is more secure to use MFA each time you log in. You can, however, choose to trust a device for 30 minutes if you wish.
Q: Why can't I use a mobile SMS to authenticate?
A: We believe the three MFA options are safer than SMS, which can be more easily compromised.
Q: What is my username?
A: The username is your email address that you normally use to log in to client portal.
