 * Hello, I’m wondering if Wordfence Security can be used to make 2FA mandatory/
   compulsory for users other than admin users. Eg, for editors, contributors, shop
   managers. If so, how do I put this in place? Thanks very much.

 * Hi [@tripa5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tripa5/),
 * At this time, it is only possible to enforce all administrators on your site 
   to set up 2FA.
 * I believe this was designed like this to prevent too many users being unable 
   to access their account. Let me ask for more details and I can get back to you
   on this thread when I’ve received a more detailed answer.

 * Hi Dave, thanks so much for looking into this. I’m looking for something that
   would not only assist with external hackers, but would also be useful in the 
   unlikely event of an internal breach… It seems that the Admins could just as 
   easily disable the enforcement of 2FA as can the other internal users… If you
   have any suggestions I’d be really grateful.
 * Cheers,
