Two-factor authentication

What is 2FA?

2FA is a Sécurité measure designed to prevent a bad actor from taking over your capgo Compte.
It achieves it by requiring an additional code. This code is stored on your mobile phone or a hardware 2FA key. It changes every 30 seconds, making it impossible to guess
