Ministry of Internal Affairs urges citizens to enable two-factor authentication to protect personal data

AKIPRESS.COM – The Main Criminal Investigation Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs called on citizens to enable two-factor authentication to secure their accounts and personal data.

Logging into an account requires additional verification beyond a password, such as a one-time code or approval through a special application. To activate the feature, users should navigate to their account’s security settings, locate the “Two-Factor Authentication” or “Two-Step Verification” section, select a confirmation method, and follow the setup instructions.

Two-factor authentication significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access even if a password is compromised. The Ministry also recommended using unique passwords, never sharing confirmation codes with third parties, and regularly reviewing active login sessions.
