Facebook Two Factor Authentication Settings documentation shows you how to setup Two-step authentication security to your account.

Last Updated: December 1, 2019

Latest News: Updated the documentation.

Facebook is a great social media platform. Many users worldwide have a Facebook account. You might be one of those people that likes to share your day to day activities with your family and friends. Especially if you have relatives that live in a different country. There is nothing wrong with sharing your data, i.e. family photos with your love ones. However you also want your data to be safe and secured.

Too many are having their Facebook account compromised and it is not something that anyone likes. Facebook have taken security seriously and have added many options to protect your personal and private information from hackers.

The following steps will show you in a few simple steps how you can achieve a two-step security login into your Facebook account. I highly recommend this.

What You Need:

  • A Facebook account.

Step 6 ) The following image displays a padlock letting you know that the Two-Factor Authentication has been setup successfully. From now on when ever you log into your account you will need to enter the code displayed in your mobile phone app.

Note: If you select to save the account login in your browser you will not have to enter the 6 security digits. However if you delete your browser cache, you will have to enter the 6 security digits again.

I hope the above steps helps you keep your login to your account secured.
