4. Protect your SouthXchange account by enabling a 2FA

Most of the time, passwords are not enough so setting a two-factor authentication or commonly known as 2FA or TFA is essential. 2FA is a way of improving your online account security, to keep your account from becoming a magnet for cybercriminals.

So, what is 2FA? Two-factor authentication is an extra level of protection to user accounts to ensure that the real owner is the one trying to gain access to his or her account. Your username and password are parts of the first factor, while the second one is a piece of information like something the account owner knows, have or is, which includes OTPs send to your mobile phone,  PINs, answers to “security questions,” or a biometric pattern of a fingerprint.

For cryptocurrency exchanges, the first factor is the login details, and the other one is a code found in applications like Authy or Google Authenticator, or can be received through SMS straight to the user’s mobile phone.

To set up a 2FA on SouthXchange, from the homepage, go to “My Account” on the upper-right-hand corner and click on “Settings.”

You can either scan the QR code or manually enter the key on the Google Authenticator app. After successfully doing it, you will acquire the two-factor code.
