What is 2-Factor Authentication (2FA)?
It’s a way to identify you in 2 different ways. Your password being the first and a secret code displayed in an authentication app on your mobile phone or tablet. This secret code refreshes every 30 seconds.
I’m sure you’re already using something similar to access your bank accounts.
After you’ve setup 2FA, every time you login, you’ll have to enter a secret code displayed in the authenticator app on your mobile device
There are a few different apps available that you can use for 2FA. In our testing, Google’s Authenticator app works well. Feel free to use any app.
