What is 2FA and why does it matter?

2FA may sound very abstract, but it's a very simple tool to add another layer of security to your account. It's basically a second password that you add after logging into your account for additional verification.

First, you download an app to your phone that generates a 6-digit code every 30 seconds. This way, it's almost impossible for someone else to access your account even if they had your password!
