Account security (2FA & trusted devices)
Enable two-factor authentication (TOTP) and manage trusted devices.
Nubiecloud offers two complementary mechanisms to protect your account: two-factor authentication (2FA) and device verification.
Two-factor authentication (2FA / TOTP)
2FA adds a temporary code on top of your password, generated by an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator…).
Enabling 2FA
- From your profile, choose Enable two-factor authentication.
- Nubiecloud shows a QR code (plus a key you can type in manually). Scan it with your authenticator app.
- Enter the 6-digit code generated by the app to confirm.
- Save the 10 backup codes that are displayed: they let you sign in if you lose your phone. They are shown only once.
At sign-in
Once 2FA is active, after your password Nubiecloud asks for the code from your app (or a backup code). Each backup code can only be used once.
Disabling 2FA
From your profile, disable 2FA by confirming with your password and a valid code.
🔒 Keep your backup codes somewhere safe. If you lose both your phone and your codes, you will need to contact support.
Trusted devices
When you sign in from a new device, Nubiecloud may send you a 6-digit code by email to confirm it really is you.
| Detail | Value |
|---|---|
| Trust duration | 30 days |
| Email code validity | 10 minutes |
| Resending the code | up to 5 times per hour |
- Tick Trust this device so you are not asked again for 30 days in this browser.
- From your profile → Trusted devices, you can list your devices (browser, last activity, expiry), revoke one, or revoke all the others (useful if you suspect a device has been compromised).
