    Why you should use 2FA for PCPartPicker?

    PCPartPicker is a popular platform for building custom PCs. With so much personal information and financial data at stake, it's important to take steps to protect your account. That's where 2-factor authentication comes in.
     
    
     Enabling 2FA on PCPartPicker adds an extra layer of security to your account. When you log in, you'll need to enter a code generated by an app like our Authenticator. This means that even if someone gets your password, they won't be able to access your account without the code.
     
    
     In addition to protecting your account, enabling 2FA can also help protect your personal information. Hackers often use stolen login credentials to access other accounts, so securing your PCPartPicker account can help prevent a domino effect of data breaches.
     
    
     Of course, even with 2FA enabled, it's important to follow other security and privacy best practices. Make sure your password is strong and unique, and never share it with anyone. Keep your computer and mobile devices up to date with the latest security patches, and be wary of phishing scams and other online threats.
     
    
     By enabling 2-factor authentication on PCPartPicker, you can help keep your account and personal information safe from hackers and other online threats.
