To meet the increasing need for strong digital security, npm has introduced two-factor authentication (2FA) to profiles and tokens. 2FA prevents unauthorized access to your accounts and projects. You have probably used 2FA before. For example, if you need to provide a code from your phone in addition to logging in with a password to access your bank account, your bank has enabled 2FA. Two-factor means that there are two pathways you must use to gain access to code or an account. 2FA would also include having a card key to get into a building, plus a physical key to get into an office. If you had one without the other, you could not get into the office.

To get started using 2FA with npm you will need to have an authentication package that can provide the second authentication factor. If you don't have one, please download a product such as Authy or Google Authenticator.

(Note: npm will not use SMS (text-to-phone) as a method for authenticating users.)
