Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) Implementation

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security by requiring users to provide multiple forms of verification before accessing SAP Concur. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, even if passwords are compromised.

Screen for setting up two-factor authentication, prompting users to scan a QR code with an authenticator app or enter a code manually to sign in.

  • Enable 2FA for all user accounts accessing SAP Concur, including administrators, employees, and third-party users.
  • Follow a step-by-step guide provided by SAP Concur to configure 2FA correctly, ensuring compatibility with your existing authentication infrastructure.
  • Promote user adoption of 2FA through training, awareness campaigns, and clear communication about its benefits for enhancing security.

Summary

  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) should be enabled for all SAP Concur user accounts.
  • User adoption of 2FA can be promoted through training and clear communication.
