Whenever possible enable 2FA (two-factor authentication) for logging into services.
Whenever possible, enable 2FA (two-factor authentication) for logging into services.

* OTP (one-time-password) authentication application, e.g. Google Authenticator, is a really secure option.
* Using 1Password to [store OTP](https://support.1password.com/one-time-passwords/) (one-time-password) tokens is convenient and safe.
* SMS authentication should be avoided, unless the only 2FA option, as it is vulnerable to attacks.
* [U2F](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_2nd_Factor) hardware token is the most secure, requiring a physical device e.g. Yubikey.
