Hi,
How do you manage two factor authentication for admin logins? We subscribe
to a few databases (eg. AIAA) that text us a verification code before we're
able to login to the admin area. This has been difficult as:

a) we share logins between ER admins
b) we've used our personal cell phones
c) not everyone is in the office at the same time, and
d) there are time limits to authenticate

What strategies have you used to overcome this? eg. an office cell phone,
tech solutions, etc. Have you contacted vendors about your concerns and
have they switched to another form of two factor authentication?

Thanks,
Lisa
