Activating two-factor authentication for your account

Overview

Responsive two-factor authentication (2FA) helps safeguard access to data and applications while maintaining simplicity for users. It provides additional security by requiring a second form of authentication and delivers strong authentication via Google Authenticator or Duo mobile authenticator applications.
