Why you should use 2FA for Surfshark?

Surfshark is a popular VPN service that allows users to browse the internet securely and anonymously. However, even with a VPN, your online accounts can still be vulnerable to hacking attempts. That's why it's important to enable 2-factor authentication (2FA) on your Surfshark account.
 

 By enabling 2FA, you add an extra layer of security to your account. This means that even if someone manages to obtain your password, they won't be able to access your account without the second factor of authentication, which is usually a code sent to your phone or generated by an app like our Authenticator.
 

 Surfshark takes security seriously and offers 2FA as an option for their users. By enabling it, you can rest assured that your account is protected from unauthorized access. Additionally, Surfshark has a strict no-logs policy, meaning they don't collect any data on your online activity.
 

 To further enhance your security and privacy, we recommend using a unique and strong password for your Surfshark account, as well as regularly updating it. It's also important to keep your phone and computer secure by using antivirus software and avoiding public Wi-Fi networks.
 

 Overall, enabling 2FA on your Surfshark account is a simple and effective way to protect your online identity and keep your sensitive information safe.
