Securing Your Site with 2FA
Two-factor authentication (2FA) is a security measure that adds an extra layer of protection to website logins by requiring users to provide two forms of identification. This can include something they know, like a password, and something they have, such as a code sent to their phone number. 2FA is easy to implement and helps increase customer trust in the security of an application. It can also be used to confirm ownership of a phone number and protect other actions within an application, such as adding users or transferring money. Implementing 2FA can significantly reduce risk for both website owners and their users by providing peace of mind that personal information is secure.
