Scenario: Setting up two-step verification
Two-step verification can help you increase the security of your account in Kaspersky Security Center Cloud Console. After you complete the scenario in this section, two-step verification of your account will be set up.
The scenario proceeds in stages:
- Adding your phone number
At this stage, you set up two-step verification by SMS.
- Installing and configuring an authenticator app
Install and configure an authenticator app.
We strongly recommend that you set up two-step verification by using an authenticator app. In this case, you can sign in to your account even if your mobile phone is not connected to the internet or a mobile network.
We also recommend that you install an authenticator app on a device other than your mobile phone. This will allow you to sign in to your account if your mobile phone is ever lost or stolen.
- Changing your phone number
If necessary, you can change the phone number that you use for two-step verification.
