Two-Factor Authentication is now set up within Carelever to enable even more security for our users. This feature operates in compliance with our certification as meeting the management systems, standards and guidelines for ISO 27001:2022 INFORMATION SECURITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS.

There are two modes that users can apply to their settings; using email OR using an authenticator app.

The next time you log into Carelever, you'll be be asked to enter a six-digit code which we will email to you. Please make sure you check your junk mail if this doesn’t immediately appear in your inbox).

Please note that the code will only be valid for 5 minutes. If you don’t enter the code within this timeframe, you will receive an ‘expired code’ notification and you’ll need to start again.

The email will look like this:

Trusting the device
