Donors can Enable Two-factor Authentication

This article provides steps to enable Two-factor authentication so donors can verify their login with an Authenticator application, email, or phone, ensuring their login is more secure.

Donors can enable Two-factor Authentication to provide a double-layer of security when using the system. Two-factor authentication does not need to be enabled, although we highly recommend it.
