How to enable multi-factor authentication

Multi-factor (or two-factor) authentication, also abbreviated as MFA (or 2FA), is an additional layer of security that you can add to your online accounts. It usually involves using an authenticator app (such as Google Authenticator) to ensure that your account and personal data are protected.
