Have you ever been told about 2-factor authentication – that is, voluntarily providing 2 methods of identification when logging into an account, like a password and a text message code – and found yourself wondering “Lock tuah? Why should I put a lock on that thang?” We thought so! Read on THIS thang to learn more:
1. Protect Your Stored Data
From credit card numbers, to scammy crypto coins you made to cash in on your 15 minutes of internet fame, to glistening pictures of your own hole, you have data worth keeping private – and 2-factor authentication is designed to protect it.
2. Guard Against Phishing Scams
Anyone can be a victim of a scam – co-workers, grandparents, even that niche internet micro-celebrity best known for a blowjob joke and second-best-known for running their own multi-million-dollar scam can get phished online. If that suspicious message from your bank requesting more “juicy hole pics” isn’t accompanied by a 2-factor authentication prompt, you can probably assume it’s not authentic. It’s probably that guy you have saved in your phone as ‘Hole Guy’ messaging you from a burner phone again. Block, ignore, move on! Thanks 2-factor authentication!
3. Add A Layer Of Fun To Your Logins
Every 2-factor login is an opportunity to test your ability to remember 6 random numbers in a row. Some people pay good money to subscribe to brain-training apps – sometimes as much as Hole Guy paid for those first pictures, back when you thought he was normal. And here you are, getting a mental workout for free! Lucky you! Maybe you can spend all of that money you saved on a definitely-viable F-list-celebrity-endorsed internet currency? It’s going for a bargain these days!
4. Secure Your Small Business
It’s hard to start your own business, even with a mediocre viral Tik Tok moment cementing your personal brand, but it’s even harder to keep it running when you’ve been attacked by nefarious entities online. Those relentless review-bomb attacks from Hole Guy claiming you “sent the piss hole instead of the good one” are doing enough harm to your hole pic business as it is. Why add a layer of drama by exposing your customer list to hackers, fraudsters, and criminals?
Some compelling arguments there! If you’re worried about cybersecurity, follow advice from the experts. Keep your data – and your hole – safe with 2FA!
