Although enabling 2FA differs from one platform to another, the steps are generally quite similar:
- Check the security settings for the account you want to protect.
- Find and select the option to enable 2FA.
- Choose the second factor you want to use (SMS, authentication app, etc.).
- Follow the instructions on your screen to set up the second factor.
- Verify that everything is activated by logging out and logging back in using two-factor authentication.
