What is Time-Based One-Time Password?
A time-based one-time password (TOTP) is a temporary passcode generated by an algorithm that uses the current time of day as one of its authentication factors. Time-based one-time passwords are commonly used for Two-factor authentication and have seen growing adoption by cloud application providers. TOTPs are derived from a secret seed password given at user registration in the form of QR code or in plaintext. TOTPs (and their seeds) are deployed on either hardware security tokens or as soft tokens, meaning mobile device apps that display the numbers. Typically, the temporary passcode expires after 30, 60, 120 or 240 seconds.
TOTP (Time-based One-time Password algorithm) is a different use case than Two-factor authentication, which protects a Tiki instance. This permits to manage the key (instead of putting on a smartphone) to connect to another site (which may or many not be a Tiki)
Using PluginTOTP in Tiki!
Let's suppose I am trying to connect to my Admin Dashboard, I begin by entering my username and password. Then I’m prompted for the TOTP, which I read off of the token and type into the third login field. Once I’ve done so, I’m logged.
