{{seealso|Two-factor authentication}}
[[File:Différents modèles de lecteurs de cartes bancaires.jpg|thumb|240px|2FA is a little bit like using one of these. Since the [[Wikimedia Foundation]] isn't going to mail a keycode device to all the [[WP:ADMIN|Administrators]], we'll need to improvise a bit.]]
2FA, or ''two-factor authentication'' is a way of adding additional security on your account. The first "factor" is your usual password that is standard for any account, the second is a code retrieved from an external device such as a smartphone, or a program on your computer. It is conceptually similar to a keycode device you may have to use when logging into [[internet banking]].
