Why you should use 2FA for Modrinth?

Modrinth is a popular platform for gamers to discover and download mods for their favorite games. With so much personal information and data stored on the platform, it's important to take steps to protect your account from unauthorized access. That's where 2-factor authentication comes in.

Enabling 2FA on your Modrinth 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 login credentials, they won't be able to access your account without also having access to your phone.

In addition to protecting your account from hackers and cybercriminals, enabling 2FA can also help you avoid falling victim to phishing scams. These scams often involve fake login pages that look just like the real thing, but are designed to steal your login credentials. With 2FA enabled, even if you accidentally enter your login information on a fake page, the scammer won't be able to access your account without also having access to your phone.

Of course, even with 2FA enabled, it's still important to take other security and privacy precautions. Make sure to use a strong, unique password for your Modrinth account, and avoid using the same password for multiple accounts. Keep your phone and other devices secure with a passcode or biometric authentication, and be wary of suspicious emails or messages asking for your login information.

By enabling 2-factor authentication on your Modrinth account, you can enjoy greater peace of mind knowing that your personal information and data are better protected from unauthorized access.
