36 +
37 + <p>
38 + The XWiki MFA / Two-Factor Authentication extension adds additional verification after the standard
39 + XWiki username and password login. It strengthens account protection without replacing the familiar
40 + XWiki authentication flow.
41 + </p>
42 +
43 + <p>
44 + The extension supports authenticator app codes using TOTP, email-delivered one-time verification codes,
45 + and stricter configurations where both verification methods are required. This allows organizations to
46 + choose between a simpler 2FA setup or a stronger multi-step MFA policy.
47 + </p>
48 +
49 + <p>
50 + Trusted clients can also be remembered for a configured period. In practice, this means that a known
51 + browser or device can avoid repeated MFA prompts, while new or untrusted clients still require the
52 + configured verification steps.

189 + <h2 id="use-cases-title">When this extension is useful</h2>
190 +
191 + <p>
192 + Two-factor authentication is especially relevant when XWiki contains internal documentation, procedures,
193 + customer information, project knowledge, administrative pages, or business-critical content.
194 + </p>
195 +
196 + <p>
197 + It can also support organizations that need MFA as part of their cybersecurity controls, including companies
198 + working toward NIS 2 readiness. NIS 2 focuses on stronger cybersecurity risk management across essential and
199 + important entities in the EU, and MFA is often expected as part of enterprise access protection programs.
200 + </p>
201 +
202 + <p>
203 + It is also useful when many users access the wiki remotely, when administrator accounts need stronger protection,
204 + or when the organization wants to reduce the risk of compromised passwords.

226 + <h2 id="compliance-title">Useful for MFA adoption and NIS 2 readiness</h2>
227 +
228 + <p>
229 + Many organizations now need multi-factor authentication for enterprise software, including internal
230 + knowledge bases, documentation platforms, intranets and systems that contain operational procedures
231 + or sensitive business information.
232 + </p>
233 +
234 + <p>
235 + For organizations using XWiki, adding MFA directly to the standard XWiki login flow can help close a
236 + practical access-control gap. The extension can support simple 2FA with one additional verification method,
237 + or a stricter MFA setup where both authenticator app and email verification are required.
238 + </p>
239 +
240 + <p>
241 + This can be relevant for organizations preparing for NIS 2, where multi-factor authentication or
242 + continuous authentication is part of cybersecurity risk-management measures, where appropriate.
243 + MFA support in XWiki is only one part of a broader compliance and security program, but it can be an
244 + important technical control for protecting access to the wiki.
