By enabling 2FA, even if your password is compromised, unauthorized access can still be prevented.
- Set up 2FA through your account settings.
- Use an authentication app or SMS for verification.
- Backup your recovery codes in a secure location.
- Be cautious of phishing attempts targeting your 2FA method.
- Regularly review your 2FA settings and linked devices.

- Enable security notifications for real-time alerts.
- Log out of all sessions if suspicious activity is detected.
