Two-Factor Authentication FAQs

General

What is 2FA?

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is an added layer of security for your FoF account. It requires you to provide two different types of information to log in: your regular password and a unique code generated by your authentication app.

How does 2FA make my FoF account more secured?

2FA adds an extra level of protection. Even if someone manages to get your password, they won't be able to access your account without the additional code from your 2FA app. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and ensures your data is secure.

What do I need for 2FA?

Your FoF Account and a chosen authenticator app. There are two options for an authentication app - (1) Google Authenticator or (2) Microsoft Authenticator.

What happens if I don’t setup 2FA on my account?

2FA is mandatory when enabled on your FoF account, there is no opt out option. 2FA provides an additional layer of protection, making it significantly harder for unauthorized individuals to access your account.
