=== W3C Web Authentication (WebAuthn) Login === <!--T:78--></translate>
<translate>
<!--T:79-->
This tab is only present when the site is accessed using https. To set up passwordless login you need a hardware device, available from Amazon and similar outlets for about &pound;15, or a device with fingerprint or face recognition or similar biometric software. You may add more than one authenticator. Once set up, you can login by clicking the Web Authentication button in the Login form and then pressing the button on the device when prompted. </translate>

<translate>
<!--T:80-->
This tab is present but cannot be used in the User edit form because passwordless login can only be set up by the individual user via the Edit Profile form.</translate>
<translate>

=== Joomla API Token === <!--T:81--></translate>

<translate>
<!--T:82-->
This tab is used to manage the security tokens used for authenticating to the Joomla API application (remote access to your site). If you are not sure what this does chances are you don't need it and can safely ignore these settings.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:83-->
The token is only visible for your own account.</translate>

<translate>
=== Multi-factor Authentication === <!--T:84--></translate>
<translate>
<!--T:85-->
This tab allows you to set one or more methods to allow access to your account after login with Username and Password. It is only present when editing your own profile. There are several methods available. If you lose access to one method for any reason you can choose another method from the post-login verification screen. The alternative mthods must have been set up in advance!</translate>
<translate>

==== Backup Codes ==== <!--T:86--></translate>
<translate>
<!--T:87-->
This method generates a set of numbers that you can save or print. Each number can be used only once, so remember to amend your list after use.</translate>
<translate>

==== Verification code ==== <!--T:88--></translate>
<translate>
<!--T:89-->
An extra form to fill out with alternative methods of setting up the code. Have a look and click the Cancel button if you decide not to proceed.</translate>
<translate>

==== Yubi Key ==== <!--T:90--></translate>
<translate>
<!--T:91-->
This is for another type of hardware key that provides a code on a screen display. Have a look and select Cancel if you decide not to proceed.</translate>
<translate>

==== Web Authentication ==== <!--T:92--></translate>
<translate>
<!--T:93-->
For a hardware device with a button to press. Have a look and select Cancel if you decide not to proceed. Note that this method will be bypassed if you use the separate WebAuthn Login method.</translate>
<translate>

==== Code by Email ==== <!--T:94--></translate>

<translate>
<!--T:95-->
With this method a code is sent to your email address. You will be prompted to enter that code to gain site access. It is a one-time code. A new one is sent for every login. Have a look and select Cancel if you decide not to proceed.</translate>
