Ubiquiti has today revealed that as of July 2024, it will be requiring mandatory MFA (Multi Factor Authentication) for all Ubiquiti accounts. This is a significant change that will affect all Ubiquiti users.

Currently, Ubiquiti requires 2FA for all accounts that manage UniFi OS consoles. However, this new change will extend this requirement to all Ubiquiti accounts, including those that only use the Ubiquiti community forums or the Ubiquiti store.

Users will have until July 2024 to enable MFA on their accounts. After this date, Ubiquiti will begin enforcing MFA for all accounts.

If you don't enable MFA by that date, Ubiquiti will set up an email based authentication system.
