Info

Note: This is currently available with all Openpath Avigilon Alta Readers but the PIN function will only work with the Openpath Avigilon Alta Keypads. To use MFA with regular Openpath Avigilon Alta Readers you will need to create a custom Entry State and toggle “Enable Multi-Factor”.

Note: This is separate from MFA for your User Profile. For information on that please see Adding MFA (Multi-factor Authentication) to your User Profile for Security.

How does it work:

  • The Openpath Avigilon Alta admin enables multi-factor authentication by creating a custom entry state that includes selecting one of the following preset MFA entry states:

    • Standard Security MFA-PIN

    • Strict Security MFA-PIN
