    Why you should use 2FA for FreshBooks?

    FreshBooks is a cloud-based accounting software that helps small businesses manage their finances. With the increasing number of cyber attacks, it's important to secure your FreshBooks account with 2-factor authentication (2FA). 
     
    
     Enabling 2FA adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring a second form of authentication, such as a code sent to your phone or a fingerprint scan. This makes it much harder for hackers to gain access to your account, even if they have your password. 
     
    
     FreshBooks takes security seriously and offers 2FA as an option for all users. By enabling 2FA, you can rest assured that your financial data is safe and secure. 
     
    
     In addition to enabling 2FA, there are other security and privacy tips you can follow to protect your FreshBooks account. Make sure to use a strong, unique password and never share it with anyone. Keep your software and devices up to date with the latest security patches. And always be cautious when clicking on links or downloading attachments from unknown sources. 
     
    
     By taking these steps, you can ensure that your FreshBooks account remains secure and your financial data stays private.
