# Account & login
> Signing in, setting up multi-factor authentication, and using trusted devices.
## Signing in
Go to your Ciclo Strategy app and sign in with your email and password. If you were
invited by a colleague or consultant, you'll have received an email with a link to set
your password the first time — follow that link to choose a password, then sign in
normally afterwards.
Invitation and password-reset links are time-limited. If yours has expired, ask an admin
to resend the invitation, or use **Forgot password** on the login screen.
## Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
For extra security, Ciclo supports app-based multi-factor authentication using a
time-based one-time code (TOTP) from an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator,
Microsoft Authenticator, or 1Password.
In your account settings, open the **Security** section and select **Set up
multi-factor authentication**.
Scan the code with your authenticator app, which will start generating 6-digit codes.
Enter the current 6-digit code to confirm and enable MFA. From now on you'll be
prompted for a code each time you sign in.
## Signing in with MFA
Once MFA is enabled, you'll be prompted for a 6-digit code from your authenticator app
each time you sign in.
## Trusted devices
To avoid entering a code every single time, you can mark a device as **trusted** when you
verify MFA on it. On a trusted device, Ciclo won't prompt for an MFA code for a period of
time.
Only trust devices that are private to you. Don't mark shared or public computers as
trusted.
## Forgot your password?
Use the **Forgot password** link on the login screen to receive a reset email. The link
takes you to a page where you can set a new password.
