How do I enable two-factor authentication?
Add an extra layer of security to your account
Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your account. Even if someone gets your password, they can't access your account without the second factor.
What is Two-Factor Authentication?
2FA requires two things to log in: 1. Something you know (your password) 2. Something you have (your phone)
