Best Multi-Factor Authentication for Apple Safari

How to use two-factor authentication with your Safari browser on any Apple device for better online security

What is two-factor authentication?


Two-factor authentication, or 2FA, is a type of multi-factor authentication and adds an extra layer of security to online accounts by requiring an additional login step. After entering a password to log in, you’ll be asked to provide a security key which can come in the form of a numerical code, barcode, QR code, or other piece of information. Only by providing the right information will you be granted access to the account.

If a password is stolen or leaked online by a hacker and someone else is trying to log in to your account, they won’t be able to without the 2-factor authentication!

Passcode is sent to mobile device

Your chosen authenticator app will generate a unique verification code on-screen as a QR code to scan or numerical code via text message. These tokens will vary across different 2FA apps.

Your mobile device will then prompt you to confirm the unique token. This can be done by scanning the QR code or entering the numerical string sent to your mobile device.

“Eu gosto do LastPass porque ele é fácil de usar e intuitivo. Ele se integra bem com todos os sites e mantém a segurança de todas as minhas contas pessoais e de trabalho. É um verdadeiro alívio saber que posso organizar minhas senhas em pastas, compartilhá-las com outras pessoas e só precisar decorar uma única senha mestre para que tudo fique protegido por criptografia.”

Kenny Kolijn

“Eu uso o LastPass tanto no trabalho quanto na vida pessoal. Com ele, eu tenho segurança para armazenar e compartilhar senhas com a minha família e com meus colegas em ambientes separados. Além disso, adoro poder gerar senhas aleatórias e superseguras, garantindo que eu não caia na tentação de reutilizar a mesma senha.”

“O LastPass é fundamental para quem lida com dados de outras pessoas, como é o caso da minha empresa. Usamos o LastPass para organizar credenciais confidenciais de clientes, e nunca ficamos na mão. O nível de segurança nos dá flexibilidade para não precisar compartilhar senhas diretamente com um fornecedor ou colaborador.”
