How to set up two-factor authentication (2FA) on Instafill.ai and enhance your account security

Instafill.ai introduces two-factor authentication (2FA) – a key security update designed to protect your data and help your organization comply with essential security frameworks. This update strengthens user authentication by adding a secure and convenient SMS verification step at login.

Organization Owners can now enforce SMS-based verification, adding a critical layer of protection to your workspace accounts. When enabled, every team member will be prompted to use two-factor authentication at their next login. This ensures consistent protection across your entire workspace – no security gaps from individual users opting out or forgetting to enable protections.


Why we added 2FA

We’re building Instafill.ai to meet enterprise security and compliance requirements. Multi-factor authentication is part of our security improvements – along with our existing data encryption, secure infrastructure, and privacy controls.

Passwords alone no longer offer adequate security. Recent studies confirm that more than 80% of data breaches involve stolen or weak credentials. Major compliance frameworks and regulators increasingly mandate 2FA as a foundational security measure:

  • ISO 27001
  • HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)
  • PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard)
  • SOC 2 (Service Organization Control 2)

By enabling 2FA, Instafill.ai helps your organization stay compliant with these requirements and significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access.


How Instafill.ai’s 2FA Works

Instafill.ai’s 2FA adds a quick and easy SMS verification step right after your initial login, regardless of the login method you use (email/password, Google SSO, or Microsoft SSO). Once enabled by your organization’s owner, every team member must authenticate using an SMS code sent directly to their phone.

Key advantages:

  • Simple and reliable SMS verification.
  • No need for external apps or tokens.
  • Immediate compliance with security best practices.

How to Enable 2FA in Instafill.ai

Enabling two-factor authentication for your organization is quick and easy. Organization Owners should follow these steps:

  • Go to the Instafill.ai Settings page in your workspace, and find the Authentication security section.
  • Check the box labeled “Require 2FA for everyone” box to activate 2FA for your organization.
  • Log out of Instafill.ai. When you sign back in (and every time thereafter), a prompt will appear asking you to enter your phone number. Click Send code.
  • The user will receive a 6-digit SMS message on their phone. They should type that code into the verification field and click Verify and Continue. After successful verification, they are logged in with 2FA enabled on their account.

Important note

Only Organization Owners can activate or deactivate the workspace-wide 2FA requirement. Other members cannot disable this setting once enabled, ensuring your workspace maintains consistent protection.
