Two-Factor Authentication
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) adds a layer of security by adding a second step to the login process. It takes something you know (for example, your password) and adds a second factor, typically from something you have (such as your phone). Requiring both to log in decreases the threat of a leaked password.
To enable 2FA:
- Log into your Client Area navigate to Hello, YOURNAME! > Security Settings
- Click Click here to Enable
- Select Time Based Tokens
- Click Get Started
- Scan the QR code with an authenticator app like Google Authenticator or Duo Mobile
- Enter the 6-digit code that the authenticator app generates
- Click Submit
- Record the Backup Code in a safe place, like a password manager
- Click Close
The Backup Code allows you log in if you lose your device.
