Setting Up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

How does 2FA work?

Upon logging in, you need to enter your email and password (the first "factor"):

If 2FA is enabled on your account, you will be prompted to enter a one-time password (the second "factor").

You then need to then open a time-based one-time password (TOTP) generation app like Authy or Google Authenticator. To complete the login process, enter the OTP that was generated via the app (more on this later):
