When you enable 2-Step Verification (also known as two-factor authentication), you add an extra layer of security to your account. After 2-Step Verification is active, you sign in with your password and a code sent to your mobile device.
You will need an authenticator app that supports the scanning of QR codes to utilize this feature. Apps such as Microsoft and Google Authenticator are recommended.
The 2-Step Verification option is not available for users using SAML Authentication and the Single Sign-On (SSO) process.
