Enhancing Account Security
Add an extra layer of security to your hoo.be account with two-factor authentication (2FA).
What is Two-Factor Authentication?
2FA requires two forms of verification when logging in: your password and a code from your phone. This makes your account much more secure.
Setting Up 2FA
- Go to Account Settings
- Click on "Security"
- Find "Two-Factor Authentication"
- Click "Enable" or "Set Up"
- Choose your method:
- Authenticator app (recommended)
- SMS text messages
- Follow the setup instructions
- Save backup codes
Using an Authenticator App
- Download an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.)
- Scan the QR code shown in hoo.be
- Enter the code from the app
- Verify and complete setup
Backup Codes
Save your backup codes in a safe place. These allow you to access your account if you lose your phone.
Disabling 2FA
- Go to Security settings
- Click "Disable Two-Factor Authentication"
- Confirm the action
- Enter your password to confirm
Best Practices
- Enable 2FA for maximum security
- Use an authenticator app instead of SMS
- Keep backup codes safe
- Don't share your 2FA codes
- Update your phone number if it changes
Two-factor authentication significantly improves your account security.
