Enroll in 2–Step Verification for Your Account

2-Step Verification is an authentication method that requires you to use more than one way of verifying your identity, providing a second layer of security to your accounts.

After you enter your user name and password at the login page, you use a second verification method, such as a passcode that is sent as an SMS to your mobile device. This prevents anyone but you from logging in, even if they know your password. There are two ways to set up 2-Step Verification for your account, during 2-Step Verification enrollment or using the My Profile console. This section covers the steps to set up authentication methods during enrollment, and also the steps required to use those methods to verify your identity during log in.
