About Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) helps better protect your vorteX-io account by adding an extra layer of security: in addition to your password, a unique code will be required each time you log in.
Enabling Two-Factor Authentication
You can enable 2FA at any time from your personal account space:
-
Log in to your vorteX-io account.
-
Click on your name at the top right of the screen.
-
Select "Profile".
-
In the Two-Factor Authentication section, click "Enable".
💡Good to know
Once you’ve enabled 2FA, you’ll be shown a QR code.
Scan this code using an authenticator app like Google Authenticator on your smartphone. This app will then start generating short, time-limited codes that you’ll use to log in.
Logging in with 2FA
From now on, every time you sign in:
-
Start by entering your usual password
-
Then, open your authenticator app and enter the secure code shown there
That’s it quick, simple, and much more secure!
