This section describes how to set up Multi-Factor Authentication.

What is Multi-Factor Authentication?

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a system that enhances identity verification by adding authentication via an authentication app in addition to an email address and password.

Normal login requires only your email address and password (knowledge information) for authentication, but when Multi-Factor Authentication is enabled, you will also need to enter a one-time password (possession information) displayed on your mobile device.

By combining multiple authentication factors, it is possible to reduce the risk of unauthorized login compared to single-factor authentication.
