What is two-factor authentication (2FA) and how do I enable it for my hosting account?
Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds a second verification step beyond your password — typically a time-based one-time password (TOTP) from an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator). Even if someone steals your password, they cannot log in without the rotating 6-digit code from your phone. Enable 2FA for Connect Quest account at connectquest.co.in account settings. Enable for cPanel: cPanel > Security > Two-Factor Authentication, scan QR code with your authenticator app, verify with a code. Enable for WHM: similar process under Security Center. For WordPress: install "WP 2FA" or "Wordfence Security" plugin and enable 2FA for admin accounts. Recommended: enable 2FA everywhere — account takeover is the most common cause of hosting account compromise. Lost access to 2FA device: use backup codes generated during 2FA setup (save these offline). Contact +91 2269711150 for account recovery assistance.
