How to activate 2 Factor authentication
When avaiable 2FA (2 Factor authentication) should be used as it adds an additional layer of security for your account. This will help protect your account from unwanted account takeovers.
Before starting the process ensure you have a 2FA application, downloads for some popular ones can be found below here - If you don't own a mobile device Authy has an option for Desktop users. The download can be found below.
