Description
Two-factor authentication (2FA) works a bit like a double lock. You use something you know (like your password) as well as something you have (like a smartphone) or something you are (like your fingerprint). The first step is to log into your account (Facebook, Twitter, Google, Microsoft etc.). The second step is that the account sends a code to your phone that you have to enter to access your account. Alternatively, you confirm access with your fingerprint.
Two-factor authentication is a safe, simple way of protecting your online accounts. Use it wherever you can.
