What is Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)?
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of protection to the login process for IQVIA Customer Portal accounts. It requires two distinct forms of verification: the first is your standard login credentials (user ID and password), and the second is a unique verification code sent to your registered email address.
Why Two-Factor Authentication?
To ensure the highest level of account security, robust protection measures are essential. Traditional login credentials—usernames and passwords—are no longer sufficient due to evolving threats such as phishing, credential stuffing, and account takeovers. That’s why the IQVIA Customer Portal has implemented Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), adding an extra layer of security to safeguard user accounts.

Two-Factor Authentication is not applicable for federated SSO users.
How to enable Two-Factor Authentication?
Users can enable their Two-Factor Authentication preferences by navigating to "My Settings" and selecting "Set Two-Factor Authentication".
Is Two-Factor Authentication mandatory for IQVIA Customer Portal users?
Two-Factor Authentication is mandatory for all external non-federated users.
What are the different types of Two-Factor Authentication Preferences?
Users have two options for enabling Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) on the IQVIA Customer Portal:

Enable 2FA for every login
Choose this option if you want to receive a verification code each time you log in. A code will be sent to your registered email address every time you access your account.

Enable 2FA only for new devices
Choose this option if you prefer to receive a verification code only when logging in from a new or unrecognized device. The code will be sent to your registered email address during those instances.
Do the user get notification email, when they change Authentication Preference?
No, users don’t receive an email notification when the user changes their authentication preference.
Do the user get an alert email when they login from a new/unidentified device?
Yes, user will receive security alert email when their account is logged in from a new device.
What will be the behavior if user access the bookmarked URL?
Two-Factor Authentication process cannot be skipped once it is enabled. Depending on your selected choice, Two-Factor authentication will always be enforced and after successful authentication, user will be redirected to the bookmarked URL.
What is the validity of verification code?
The Verification code is valid for 10 minutes from the time it is generated.
What happens if the user enters the wrong verification code or if the current code expires?
If the user enters the incorrect verification code three times, the verification code becomes invalid after 10 minutes from the time it is generated, and user must request for a new verification code by clicking on "Resend Code" button.
If the user is not able to verify or makes three unsuccessful attempts for the second verification code as well, the account will be locked out.
What if the user has not received an email verification code?
Check all your Outlook folders, including the Junk folder, with the registered email address. User can find the email address domain on the Verification Code page, which appears as: "Dear user, A verification code has been sent to your registered email address (ending with @xy.company.com)". Additionally, please make sure to whitelist the following email addresses by reaching out to your local IT team: the_eservice_team@us.imshealth.com and eservice@iqvia.com.
