Two-Factor Authentication Setup
Protect your Aevum News account with an additional layer of security. 2FA ensures that only you can access your premium features, editorial tools, and personal data.
Access Security Preferences
Navigate to your Account Dashboard, select Security & Privacy from the left sidebar, and locate the Two-Factor Authentication section.
Choose Your Authentication Method
We recommend using a TOTP authenticator app (Authy, Google Authenticator, or Microsoft Authenticator) for maximum security. SMS verification is available as a fallback option.
Scan or Enter Secret Key
Open your authenticator app and scan the QR code displayed on the next screen. If scanning isn't possible, manually enter the secret key below:

Enter the 6-digit code generated by your authenticator app to complete the setup. You will be prompted to save your backup codes immediately after verification.

š Backup Recovery Codes
These single-use codes allow you to access your account if you lose your primary device. Store them securely offline. They cannot be recovered once used.
ā” Security Best Practices
- Never share your 2FA codes or secret keys with anyone, including Aevum News support staff.
- Store backup codes in a password manager or physical safe. Do not save them in cloud notes without encryption.
- Enable 2FA on all linked devices and accounts associated with your Aevum News profile.
- Report suspicious login attempts immediately via the Security Center.
