Two-factor authentication (2FA)
Universities are also targets of hacker attacks - with the result that entire universities are paralyzed for weeks. At the University of Hamburg, cyber attacks have so far been unsuccessful. We want to keep it that way!
However, secure passwords alone are not enough: To significantly increase the protection of your devices and data, the University of Hamburg is introducing two-factor authentication, or 2FA for short.
Watch this explanatory film to get an overview of what two-factor authentication is all about.
Recommendation: Register at least two devices so that you are more flexible in using 2FA.
