Instinct announces support for six-digit authenticator codes

Instinct announced on September 11 that authenticator support was available to all users. It says the feature uses time-based one-time passwords (TOTP), the same standard used by Authy, Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator. After setup in Vault, an agent can generate and enter codes to continue tasks behind a login. On supported services, Instinct says it can also complete enrollment and save the details alongside the login, though users may need to approve the initial sign-in or an existing security check. Where a service allows an additional authenticator, users can keep the one on their phone. Phone approvals and other security checks may still require user input.
