Two-factor authentication

Your salon's Xircuit account holds client contact details, booking histories and payment records. Two-factor authentication ensures that only authorised staff can access client data — even if login credentials are ever leaked.

One extra step that keeps your accounts safe.

  • Client contact details and booking histories are secured against credential-based access.
  • Payment record access requires a second authentication factor — not just a password.
  • Staff set up 2FA themselves in minutes from their profile — no IT support needed.

Xircuit's two-factor authentication uses time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) from any authenticator app — Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator or Authy. Every account stays protected against credential-stuffing attacks even if a password is ever compromised.

TOTP authenticator support

Works with Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy and any standard TOTP app — no proprietary hardware required.

Credential-stuffing protection

Even if a password is exposed in a third-party breach, 2FA blocks unauthorised access to Xircuit accounts.

Self-service enrolment

Users set up 2FA from their own profile page in under two minutes — no admin intervention required.

Admin enforcement option

Org admins can require 2FA for all staff logins, ensuring consistent security across the whole team.

No SMS dependency

TOTP codes are generated locally on the user's device — no SIM-swap risk and no reliance on phone signal.

Two-factor authentication

Hair salons that enforce 2FA for all staff logins consistently eliminate the risk of unauthorised client data access from credential leaks — a simple step that builds client trust and supports GDPR compliance at no additional cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which authenticator apps does Xircuit support?

Xircuit supports any standard TOTP authenticator app, including Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator and Authy. You scan a QR code once during set-up and the app generates codes automatically.

Can I require 2FA for all staff and admin logins?

Yes. Org admins can enforce 2FA for all staff roles from the organisation security settings. Users without 2FA set up will be prompted to enrol before accessing their account.

What happens if a user loses access to their authenticator app?

Users receive recovery codes when they set up 2FA. An org admin can also disable 2FA for a specific account via the admin panel so the user can re-enrol.
