Applies To

  • docs/pages/admin-guides/management/security/reduce-blast-radius.mdx
  • docs/pages/includes/config-reference/auth-service.yaml
  • docs/pages/reference/access-controls/authentication.mdx

Any other mentions of the auth_service.authentication.second_factor configuration field.

Details

As of v16.0.0, the auth_service.authentication.second_factor behavior changed so that:

Support for disabling multi-factor authentication has been removed. Teleport
will refuse to start until the second_factor setting is set to on, webauthn
or otp.

This change only affects self-hosted Teleport users, as Teleport Enterprise (Cloud) has
always required multi-factor authentication.

(Changelog)

How will we know this is resolved?

All mentions of the second_factor field describe the v16+ behavior.

Closes #48767

Remove the section re: making MFA mandatory, since in v16 and after, it
is always mandatory. This removes the last mention in the docs of the
pre-v16 `second_factor` behavior.
