    Two-factor authentication provides an extra layer of security beyond just a password. It requires users to enter a one-time security code in addition to their password when logging in. The code is typically sent via text message or generated by an authentication app on the user's device. Setting up two-factor authentication involves providing a phone number and selecting whether to receive codes via text or app. Some services also offer backup verification methods like approval of logins from recognized devices or one-time recovery codes. The process of setting up two-factor authentication is similar across major platforms like Facebook and Google.
