Why you should use 2FA for Karlsruher Institut für Technologie?

Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) is a renowned research and educational institution in Germany. As a KIT user, you have access to a wealth of resources and information. However, with great access comes great responsibility. That's why we recommend enabling 2-factor authentication (2FA) to protect your KIT account.
 

 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.
 

 Enabling 2FA on your KIT account is easy. Simply go to your account settings and follow the instructions to set it up. Once enabled, you'll be prompted to enter a code every time you log in, making it much harder for anyone to access your account without your permission.
 

 At our Authenticator app, we take security and privacy very seriously. Our app is designed to securely store your 2FA codes, so you can access them whenever you need them. We use industry-standard encryption to protect your data, and we never share your information with third parties.
 

 In addition to enabling 2FA and using our app, there are a few other security and privacy tips we recommend for KIT users. First, make sure your password is strong and unique. Don't use the same password for multiple accounts, and avoid using easily guessable information like your name or birthdate.
 

 Second, be wary of phishing scams and other attempts to steal your information. Don't click on links or download attachments from unknown sources, and always verify the authenticity of any emails or messages you receive.
 

 By following these tips and enabling 2FA, you can help keep your KIT account and personal information safe and secure.
