Why you should use 2FA for Yahoo Mail?

Yahoo Mail is a popular email service that is used by millions of people worldwide. While it is a convenient way to stay connected with friends and family, it is also a prime target for hackers. That's why it's important to enable 2-factor authentication (2FA) on your Yahoo Mail account.

2FA adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring a second form of authentication in addition to your password. This can be a code sent to your phone or a biometric scan, such as a fingerprint. By enabling 2FA, you can protect your account from unauthorized access and keep your personal information safe.

In addition to enabling 2FA, there are other security and privacy tips you can follow to further protect your Yahoo Mail account. Make sure to use a strong, unique password and never share it with anyone. Avoid clicking on suspicious links or downloading attachments from unknown senders. And always log out of your account when using a public computer or device.
