      Improve your data security with two-factor authentication (2FA).

      Two-factor authentication (2FA) enhances your account security. In addition to your login credentials (email address and password), you will also be required to enter a one-time password (OTP) generated by an authenticator app of your choice.

      Setup:


      If you do not already have an authenticator app on your smartphone, install one, such as Google Authenticator.

      1. Download Google Authenticator

      2. Follow the instructions on Google's user documentation
        You can find instructions on how to set up Google Authenticator on the official Google support site.

      Navigate to your User Settings.
