    Why you should use 2FA for Crowdin?

    Crowdin is a popular platform for managing localization projects. With so much sensitive information being shared on the platform, it's important to take security seriously. That's why we recommend enabling 2-factor authentication (2FA) to add an extra layer of protection to your account.
     
    
     By enabling 2FA, you'll be required to enter a unique code in addition to your password when logging in. This code is generated by an app like ours, and it changes every few seconds. Even if someone manages to steal your password, they won't be able to access your account without the code.
     
    
     At Authenticator, we take security and privacy seriously. Our app uses industry-standard encryption to keep your 2FA codes safe. We never store your codes on our servers, and we don't have access to them. This means that even if our servers were hacked, your codes would still be safe.
     
    
     In addition to enabling 2FA, there are a few other security and privacy tips you should follow when using Crowdin. First, make sure to use a strong, unique password for your account. Don't reuse passwords across multiple sites, as this can make it easier for hackers to gain access to your accounts.
     
    
     Second, be careful when sharing sensitive information on the platform. Only share what's necessary, and make sure to use secure channels like encrypted messaging or email when communicating with others.
     
    
     By following these tips and enabling 2FA with our app, you can help keep your Crowdin account safe and secure.
