• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.
  • The ImunifyAV extension is now deprecated and no longer available for installation.
    Existing ImunifyAV installations will continue operating for three months, and after that will automatically be replaced with the new Imunify extension. We recommend that you manually replace any existing ImunifyAV installations with Imunify at your earliest convenience.

Question Enable 2FA on FTP

Thomas Oryon

New Pleskian
Hi

I would like to enable 2FA on FTP account in plesk. I have installed plesk in both windows and linux server. Could anyone please tell whether it is possible to enable 2FA on plesk FTP accounts?

Thanks.
 
2FA integration is not supported for FTP in Plesk. As far as I am aware, that's not very common for FTP in general. Would you mind sharing what exactly is the reason for seeking 2FA for FTP in particular? There might be an alternative way for achieving the end goal.
 
Hello,

We need it for the additional security and it is our requirement to enable the 2FA for FTP. Please let us know the alternative way to enable the 2FA for FTP in plesk.

Thanks
 
2FA is not part of the FTP protocol. It is not used along with FTP, FTPS or SFTP, but a proprietary solution of selected FTP servers like the "FileZilla Pro Enterprise Server". That is not a regular FTP server. A one-year single machine license of that server costs around 200 $ at this time. It would need to replace the existing FTP server that is delivered for free with your (free) operating system, normally ProFTPD. The requirement for 2FA for FTP is so rare that it will very likely be uneconomical for Plesk to provide full support for a commercial solution like the FileZilla Pro Enterprise Server. But if you feel that this is a feature that would improve Plesk, you could suggest it to Your Ideas for Plesk and let others vote for it. The features with many votes will be considered.
