ReadyNAS 2nd factor authentication, Does anyone know if/or/how/when, ReadyNAS would support it.
HI, Does anyone know if/how/when/ ReadyNAS would be able to support 2nd factor authentication, with either a YUBIKEY with Yubico OTP, Oath-HOTP, Oath-TOTP, Challenge Response, FIDO U2F, or Google Authenticator, and if ReadyCLOUD and the Physical ReadyNAS already support Yubikey, can anyone point me to some documentation as to how to implement it please. (preferably want to use FIDO-U2F) Readynas OS 6.5.0, RN314

NETGEAR Community teamI informed the product team over a year ago about customers wanting more 2-factor authentication support on ReadyNAS. I personally use Yubikey and have many authenticators as well.
We currently have file system level encryption built-in but it requires USB and is not compatible with 2FA.
What's your expectation on how 2FA would be used for ReadyNAS/ReadyCLOUD? What are you planning to unlock/lock?
its a more secure way of logging into readycloud when you are not on your LAN, Google, github, dropbox all make use of U2F on Yubikey, and just wondered if that would be an option in the near future.
So, you're just looking more for 2FA when outside the network, nothing 2FA within ReadyNAS itself?
I'm just trying to get more information of what customers actually want, since we're not mind-readers, and want to make sure we don't misunderstand what you actually want. There's many different applications for 2FA.
