Require 2-Step Authentication for All Users
You must have Admin (User and Organization) privileges in order to enforce 2-Step Authentication across your organization. Before requiring all users in your organization to use 2-Step Authentication, you must set up 2-Step Authentication on your own account by following the instructions above.
To require 2-Step Authentication for all the users on your organization, follow the instructions below.
Go to Organization > Security
Toggle Require 2-Step Authentication for your organization ON
Confirm with the Require for Everyone button
All current and future users will be required to activate 2-Step Authentication in order to access your organization. If you use multiple ManageXR organizations, you will need to set this requirement in each organization separately. You may turn it off at any time to allow users without 2-Step Authentication setup to access the organization.
Monitor Compliance
When you require 2-Step Authentication for all users on your organization, you can monitor compliance from the Organization Settings > Users page. The security shield indicates whether a user has enrolled in 2-Step Authentication.

FAQs
Does 2-Step Authentication work with SSO?
Does 2-Step Authentication work with SSO?
The 2-Step Authentication provided by ManageXR works for users who either use (a) a standard email/password, (b) Google, or (c) Microsoft to log in. It does not support custom SSO at this time. We recommend requiring 2-Step authentication through your SSO provider.
