Hi, all. Quick question...
If I enable 2-Factor Authentication for my Admin account on the NAS I administer for a client, will that affect the people who get on externally using the VPN, or the people who log on to the NAS with local SAMBA shares? Nobody else uses myQNAPCloud for this NAS.
Thanks.
2-Factor for myQNAPCloud only?

2FA has no effect on SMB ..make sure that the NAS is only reachable via VPN..otherwise 2FA will not protect you (attackers just circumvent it with frequent exploits)

Thanks! I'll reconfigure the NAS so it's only accessible by the VPN.
