# Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is an additional layer of security that protects your account.\
When 2FA is enabled, a password alone is not enough to log in; a second verification is required, such as:

* A code sent to your mobile device or email

This means that even if someone knows your password, they cannot access your account without the second-step code.

To set up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), you need to follow a few simple steps. First, go to the **Security** page.
