Using Two-Factor Authentication to Access Workspaces
Two-factor authentication service adds an additional layer of security to your workspace. Verifying your identity using a second factor (like your phone or another mobile device) prevents anyone but you from logging in, even if they know your password.
Workspaces will ask you to verify your identity after you have entered your account username and password. Then, you will enter a code provided via an authentication app (TOTP, or Time-Based One-Time Password).
