Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) adds a second verification step on top of your password. Even if someone obtains your password, they cannot log in without also passing the second factor.

Available methods

Method How it works Best for
Email OTP A 6-digit one-time code is sent to your registered email address each time you log in. Users who prefer not to install additional apps.
Authenticator App (TOTP) A time-based code generated by an app such as Google Authenticator, Authy, or any TOTP-compatible app. Higher security; works offline; no reliance on email delivery.

2FA status codes

Your account can be in one of three states:

Status Meaning
Not active 2FA is disabled. Login requires only username and password.
Pending Activation has been started but not yet confirmed.
Secured 2FA is active. A second factor is required at every login.
Tip: We strongly recommend enabling 2FA on your account, especially if you have administrative permissions. Go to 2FA Authentication to set it up.
