<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">As a publisher on the Atypon platform, we really appreciate the additional security measures they have put in place to maintain the integrity of our customer accounts. Having said that, SMS-based
2-factor authentication (2FA) has not been without its difficulties.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">The next major update to the platform is bringing in two alternative methods of 2FA (i.e. email, app-based) which should enable every institutional administrator to find a method that works for them.
It is of course up to individual publishers to evaluate and implement each method, but we’re certainly looking forward to smoothing out some of the wrinkles caused by the current method.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Collective Wisdom, <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">After logging into a few publisher sites hosted by Atypon, I noticed that I'm being prompted to set up 2-step verification at every turn. I can log in to my administrative account, but if I attempt to go to any other pages (such as to update
IP addresses), I have to input my mobile phone number to receive a one-time code via SMS. It gives me the opportunity to remember my computer for 30 days (no doubt by cookie).<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">While I usually applaud these types of efforts, I'm wondering how you have dealt with this from an institutional point of view. Since I'm not the only one at my institution accessing the administrative accounts, I would have to ask my staff
to use their personal mobile phones to run 2-step verification when the log on (since our desk phones don't take SMS). And if any one of them can verify by SMS, what's the added security of 2-step verification offering?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
