# Two-Factor Authentication

## This guide will show you how to use the two-factor authentication on Admissions+.

Note: You need to have the right permissions. It should be Admin or Super Admin within your school. This is also available to Data Managers and IT Managers.

First of all, click on Settings, select School Settings, and then General Settings.

If you click on the Security Settings tab, you may enable two-factor authentication by toggling the button on.  
Note: You may choose to enable it for Staff, Parents, and Students.

Note: If you don't see this area, you should check your permissions by going to Settings, selecting School Settings, and then Users.

Check the role assigned to you and remember that it needs to be one of the roles mentioned above as those are the roles that have permission to access the Security Settings area.
