How to Enable Multi-Factor Authentication in Barracuda Cloud Control

Multi-factor authentication (MFA), also known as two-factor authentication, is a security feature that requires two forms of authentication to access Barracuda Cloud Control. By default, MFA is optional. The account administrator can specify whether MFA is required for all users or for himself on a Barracuda Cloud Control account. This article shows how to do so.

To enable MFA for an administrator, log into Barracuda Cloud Control as the administrator on the account: https://login.barracuda.com/ 

go to Home > My Profile

Under Multi-Factor Authentication, click on Add New Device

Scan the QR code using your phone and enter the code you receive from Google or Microsoft Authentication. Click Save.

To enable MFA for all users, please follow these steps.

Go to the Home > Admin > Options page

Under Multi-Factor Authentication, check Required and then Save.

Now, test it.
