Even if someone else gets hold of your password, they won&rsquo;t be able to access your account without the second piece of information. This is especially important for accounts that contain sensitive information, such as bank accounts, emails, or personal data.

When you set up two-step verification, you may receive backup codes that you can write down and keep in a safe place. If you can&rsquo;t receive a code because you lost your phone, you can use one of these backup codes to log in.

By requiring both a password and a second form of verification, it significantly enhances your online safety. Setting it up is simple, and it provides an essential layer of protection for your personal and sensitive information. Whether you&rsquo;re accessing work accounts or personal ones, using two-step verification is a smart way to keep your data safe!
