With this guide produced by the Cyber ​​Security Center, you will learn what multi-step authentication is and how to use it, for example. It means that your identity is verified using two or more different identification methods. Almost all attempts to hijack user accounts can be prevented by using multi-factor authentication. Even if a criminal gets your username and password, you cannot log into the service without an additional identifier. Services with personal or payment information should always be protected with multi-step authentication.
