Setting up two-factor authentication

You can set up two-factor authentication (2FA) to provide your account with extra protection against third-party access. Each time that you log in, you have to authenticate yourself again using a second factor.

Note

  • You need a smartphone with an authenticator app.

  • You set up the feature using the d.velop platform.

  • If you cannot see the function yet, 2FA is not activated for your provider yet.
