Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP)
A Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) is a security algorithm used as part of two-factor authentication (2FA) to protect against account attacks.
The mechanism is integrated into dot-totp to enhance security by requiring both a password and an additional one-time code. Our implementation follows the industry standard of using an Authenticator app to generate temporary, unique 6-digit codes that change every 30 seconds.
2FA with TOTP Flow
Below is a simplified flow for the 2FA with a TOTP mechanism.
