Purpose

Sentry Two-Factor Authentication will protect your Magento store and customer data by adding an extra check to authenticate your Admin users before allowing them access. Developed as a partnership between the Human Element Magento Development team and Nexcess Hosting, Sentry Two-Factor Authentication for Magento is easy to setup and admin users can quickly login.

Notes -

1. Installing this module will update the admin_user table in the Magento database to add a twofactor_google_secret field for storing the local GA key. It is safe to remove this field once the module is removed.
2. If you get locked out of admin because of a settings issue, loss of your provider account or other software related issue, you can temporarily disable the second factor authentication -

• Place a file named tfaoff.flag in the root directory of your Magento installation.
• Login to Magento's Admin area without the second factor.
• Update settings or disable Sentry
• Remove the tfaoff.flag file to re-enable two factor authentication.

Known Issues

1. Google authenticator code verification returns Invalid Code response.

   Sometimes even after entering the current code from the google authenticator screen, you get an invalid code message from the module. If that is the case make sure the time stamp on the server is up-to-date. The authentication mechanism uses a time slice logic to verify the code. If the server time is not in sync with the ntp servers the invalid code response is expected.

   If you find the server is not in sync, perform the following actions

   • Install ntpdate sudo yum install ntpdate
   • Run sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org
