# Enable Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your Firstoken Console account. Once enabled, you will be prompted for a one-time code on every login.

#### Before you start

Install an authenticator app on your device. Supported apps include Google Authenticator and 1Password.

#### Steps

1. Log in to the Firstoken Console.
2. Click your name and avatar in the top-right corner and select **Account**.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the Account page and click **Setup 2FA**.
4. Scan the QR code displayed using your authenticator app.
5. Enter the code generated by your app and confirm.

2FA is now active. On your next login, after entering your credentials, you will be prompted for the current OTP shown in your authenticator app.
