Hi Frank,

You can create your own authentication mechanism.

If am not mistaken you can make use of contour as well to get this working.

Thanks alex! How do I create my own authentication mechanism? Is there any sample that I can follow?

Fuji, I have checked out contour, but not sure how it can be implemented for my case. Is there any example? 

Hi Frank,

Well you can make use of contour member tools where you will be able to edit, change password or any other field.

For a start you will need to create a member type under the members section where you will add all the fields necessary.

When creating a new member you have to give it a Login Name, Email, and Password will be auto generated which you can change if you want to.

Login & Email will be the user authentification here. Then as usually you need a password.

You can make use of some asp login in your template

<asp:Login ID="Login1" DisplayRememberMe="true" DestinationPageUrl="~/" VisibleWhenLoggedIn="false" runat="server"  LoginButtonText="Login"   RememberMeText="Remember me">                          
 </asp:Login> 

Hope this helps

Hi Fuji,

Thanks! I need the 2-factor authentication for the Users section (i.e. the backend CMS login /umbraco), not for members. Can I still use contour for this?

Hi Frank,

As far as I'm aware there isn't a package or plugin available that offers 2-factor authentication for the Umbraco back-office. You would need to implement the functionality yourself.

By coincidence, I was reading up on this myself the other day (I was just curious, I wasn't looking to implement it). I found a few interesting articles:

• Add Two-Factor Authentication To Your Website with Google Authenticator and Twilio SMS - the code examples are in Python, but the overall tutorial is good.
• Is there a tutorial on how to implement Google Authenticator in .NET apps?
• Implementing Two Factor Authentication in ASP.NET MVC with Google Authenticator
• A couple of .NET libraries that implement TOTP/Google Authenticator
  • Google Authenticator TOTP C#
  • googleAuthNet

Good luck with it!

Cheers,

@Bartosz , Can you please help here with some sample. I believe you had done a lot of r n d around this

Did anyone succeed with integrating TOTP (google authenticator) to the Umbraco back-office login?

is working on a reply...
