What is OddsMonkey Two Factor Authentication
We’ve recently added ‘Two Factor Authentication’ to the site. ‘2FA’ is an extra security feature, designed to help protect your account, in addition to your password.
If you enable Two Factor Authentication, you’ll need to enter a special security code each time you login to OddsMonkey. This code will be sent to you via email and is valid for just 15 minutes. Each code can only be used once. If you’ve got the “Keep me logged in” box on the login page ticked, you won’t need this code the next time you visit the site from that device.
If someone tries to access your account, (using the correct password) you will receive this code. Therefore, without access to your email account, they won’t be able to go any further. 2FA is a second door of protection for your account. If this happens, you may want to take the opportunity to change your password, though.
