Two-factor authentication for e-Cont.md account

Two-factor authentication is designed to make sure that you’re the only person who can access your account e-Cont.md. Learn how it works and how to turn on two-factor authentication.

What is two-factor authentication?

Two-factor authentication is an extra layer of security for your e-Cont.md Account, designed to make sure that you’re the only one who can access your account — even if someone else knows your password. When you sign in to your e-Cont.md account for the first time on a new device or on the web, you need both your password and the six-digit verification code that’s which will be sent to you via email, SMS to your trusted device, or using Google Authenticator. Because just knowing your password isn’t enough to access your account, two-factor authentication dramatically improves the security of your e-cont.md account and the data that you store with e-Cont.md.

Two-factor authentication is the default security method for most accounts. Certain e-Cont.md services and features, such as e-cont.md Sign in, require two-factor authentication. We recommend that you use two-factor authentication and protect your device with a passcode Google Authentifivator if your device supports it.

Sign in with two-factor authentication

When logging into your e-Cont.md account on a new device or browser, you may be asked to enter a six-digit verification code.

The code will be sent to you via Google Authenticator or via SMS to your trusted device. You can then complete the login process.

After logging in for the first time, you will no longer be asked for a verification code on that device until you log out, erase all data on the device, change your password for security reasons, or if more than 30 days have passed since your last login.

If you don’t have a trusted device with you

If you’re trying to sign in and don’t have a trusted device with you that can display verification codes, you can tap Didn’t Get a Code on the sign-in screen and choose to send a code to one of your trusted phone numbers.
