Account Security
Strengthen your Guardion account with multi-factor authentication.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) strengthens your account security by requiring an additional verification step when you sign in. This helps prevent unauthorized access even if your password is compromised.
Set up MFA
To enable multi-factor authentication:
- Go to the Dashboard
- Select Personal Account → Settings
- In the Multi-factor authentication section, click Set up
- Select your preferred authentication method
- Complete the verification process by following the on-screen instructions
Once enabled, you’ll need to provide both your password and a verification code when signing in to Guardion.
Available authentication methods
Guardion supports several authentication methods to accommodate different security needs:
| Method | How it works | Security level |
|---|---|---|
| Authenticator app | Uses a TOTP-compatible app like Google Authenticator or Authy to generate time-based codes | Recommended: Highest security, works without internet connection |
| SMS verification (Coming soon) | Delivers verification codes via text message to your registered phone number | Medium security: Convenient but vulnerable to SIM swapping attacks |
| Email verification (Coming soon) | Sends verification codes to your registered email address | Basic security: Use only when other methods aren’t available |
We strongly recommend using an authenticator app for optimal security.
