Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Overview
Two-factor authentication adds an additional layer of security to your account by requiring more than just a password to sign in. It is a security process that requires users to provide two different authentication factors, such as passwords or tokens, to verify their identity. Whenever you sign in with your email address and password, you also need to enter a security code generated on your mobile device.
This feature is available to all plan types and can be set up easily in your account settings.
