    Why you should use 2FA for Bitbucket?

    Bitbucket is a popular platform for code collaboration and version control. If you're using Bitbucket, it's important to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) to protect your account from unauthorized access.
     
    
     Enabling 2FA adds an extra layer of security to your account. Instead of just entering your password, you'll also need to enter a code generated by an app like our Authenticator. This means that even if someone manages to steal your password, they won't be able to access your account without the code.
     
    
     Bitbucket takes security seriously and offers several options for 2FA, including SMS, TOTP, and U2F. We recommend using TOTP or U2F for the most secure option.
     
    
     In addition to enabling 2FA, there are other steps you can take to protect your Bitbucket account. Make sure your password is strong and unique, and don't reuse it on other sites. Keep your computer and mobile devices up to date with the latest security patches, and be wary of phishing scams.
     
    
     At our Authenticator, we take your privacy seriously. We don't collect any personal information from you, and all of your 2FA codes are stored securely on your device. You can trust us to keep your accounts safe and secure.
