The Two-factor Authentication can be enabled and disabled through Account Security. Users can link accounts using Google Authenticator to enable Two-factor Authentication. After providing the login credentials, the user is asked to provide a 6-digit Google Authentication code. If the Two-factor authentication is disabled through Account Security, the user does not need to provide additional codes to log in.
