If None is selected, no two factor or multi factor authentication options are required during the user login process. You will log into the application using your appropriate email and password. After entering your email and password, the Login Form Disclaimer Text page will display.

 

This is the default.

Basic

Basic two factor authentication is enabled through email. You will log into the application using your email and password. An email is sent to your registered email address. (This is the email that was entered in your User Profile.)

Pro

Primary two factor authentication is configured to use either an authenticator application such as Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator, or to use SMS messages sent to your mobile device. If primary authentication is not available, use email as a secondary authentication method. In all cases, you will log into the application using email and password, and then must provide specific information through an authentication app, SMS or email before being allowed to log into the application.

 

If this option was selected, the following dialog box will display:

You can scan the QR code using Google Authenticator or similar app and then enter the passcode in the appropriate field.
