How to Set Up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

At SyncSpider, we prioritize the security of your account. Enabling Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a powerful way to protect your data by adding an extra layer of security. 

2FA ensures that even if someone has your credentials, they cannot access your account without a verification code. 

This article will guide you through the steps to enable 2FA for your SyncSpider account in just a few minutes.
