Account Security

Qualflare provides several tools to keep your account secure. This guide covers setting up two-factor authentication, managing active sessions, and connecting or disconnecting OAuth accounts.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication adds a second verification step to your login, requiring a code from an authenticator app in addition to your password.

Setting Up 2FA

1. Go to Account → Two-Factor Authentication
2. Click Enable 2FA
3. Scan the QR code with an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, etc.)
4. Enter the 6-digit code shown in your authenticator app to confirm setup
5. Save your recovery codes in a secure location

WARNING

Recovery codes are used to regain access if you lose your authenticator device. Store them in a secure place — they cannot be retrieved later.

Disabling 2FA

1. Go to Account → Two-Factor Authentication
2. Click Disable 2FA
3. Enter your current password and a verification code to confirm

Managing Active Sessions

View and manage all active login sessions for your account.

1. Go to Account → Sessions
2. The list shows each session with:
   • Device/browser type
   • IP address
   • Location (approximate)
   • Last active time
3. Click Revoke on any session you don't recognize or no longer need

TIP

Revoking a session immediately signs out that device. Use this if you suspect unauthorized access or if you lost a logged-in device.

Connected Accounts (OAuth)

You can connect social/OAuth login providers to sign in without a password.

Connecting an Account

1. Go to Account → Connected Accounts
2. Click Connect next to the provider you want to add (Google, GitHub, etc.)
3. Complete the OAuth authorization flow
4. The provider is now linked — you can sign in using this account

Disconnecting an Account

1. Go to Account → Connected Accounts
2. Click Disconnect next to the provider
3. Confirm the disconnection

WARNING

Make sure you have a password set or another connected account before disconnecting — otherwise you may lose access to your account.

Changing Your Password

2. Enter your current password

4. Click Update

New IP Login Alerts

Qualflare sends an email alert when your account is signed in from a new or unrecognized IP address. If you receive this email and don't recognize the login, change your password immediately and revoke the session.
