Trusted Devices

Trusted devices let the gateway remember a browser after a successful MFA verification.

  • A trusted-device cookie is set after verification
  • Future web logins skip the MFA prompt until the TTL expires (default 30 days)
  • Trust is browser-specific, and only applies to web logins: a CLI login asks for MFA whenever it applies to you
  • A trusted device is not a factor: sensitive actions that need step-up still ask you to verify one
  • Trusting a device needs a step-up

You can trust a device in two ways:

  1. Complete MFA verification
  2. Check Trust this device for N days (the configured TTL, 30 by default)
  3. Finish sign-in
  1. Go to Account Security
  2. In Trusted Devices, click Trust This Device

The Trusted Devices table shows:

  • Device
  • Last used
  • IP
  • Expires

To revoke a device, click Revoke next to the entry (this needs a step-up).

Admins can set the trusted-device TTL in Settings → MFA Requirements (mfa_trusted_device_ttl_days).
