Loss of a second factor The following procedure may be used when a user needs to access a protected application, but doesn't have his second authentication factor available: The user may enter its login/password on https://mydomain.trustelem.com. Instead of activating the usual second factor, he/she selects « Use an alternative method ». The user may then ask a rescue code: He has to click on « Ask for a rescue code ». All administrators receive an email alerting that a rescue code is requested by a user. One of the admins has to click on « Rescue code » in the « Alerts » tab of the Trustelem admin dashboard. This code can be transmitted to the user, after having properly checked the user's identity. The user has 24h to use this one-time rescue code.
