    Why you should use 2FA for Hackster.io?

    Hackster.io is a great platform for makers and DIY enthusiasts to share their projects and connect with like-minded individuals. However, with the rise of cyber attacks, it's important to take extra precautions to protect your account. That's where 2-factor authentication (2FA) comes in.
     
    
     Enabling 2FA on your Hackster.io account adds an extra layer of security to your login process. Instead of just entering your username and password, you'll also need to enter a unique 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 2FA code.
     
    
     At our Authenticator, we take security and privacy seriously. Our app uses industry-standard encryption to protect your 2FA codes and we never store any of your personal information. Plus, our app is easy to use and compatible with a wide range of platforms.
     
    
     To ensure maximum security, we recommend using a strong and unique password for your Hackster.io account and enabling 2FA. Additionally, be cautious of phishing scams and never share your login information with anyone.
