How do I set up two-factor authentication?

Two-Factor Authentication is a tool offered by Fabulous to ensure the highest level of security for your Fabulous account.  In addition to the associated password, accounts using two factor authentication will need to have a unique token or key in order to log in. 

We offer two different brands of Two-Factor Authentication: Google Authenticator and YubiKey.  To activate this service, log into your Directnic account and go to Admin > Security > Security Settings > Two Factor Authentication or go directly to this link: https://fabulous.com/my/profile/security
