 # How to Use 2FA on the Control Panel
 
-Two factor authentication, also known as two-step verification, is a more secure way of logging in than logging in with just a password, because everyone receives a unique code to log in. In this article we explain how to use two factor authentication on the Control Panel.
+Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), also called two-step verification, adds an extra layer of security to your Hypernode Control Panel account. Instead of signing in with only a password, you also confirm your identity with a one-time code from your authentication app.
 
-How 2FA Works:
+This makes it significantly harder for unauthorized users to access your account, even if your password is compromised.
 
-- You'll need access to your mobile device when signing in to the Control Panel.
-- You'll enter a verification code each time you sign in. You can also select the **Remember this device for 30 days** option to receive a verification code prompt only once every 30 days.
-- You'll need a verification app to receive the verification code.
+## How 2FA Works:
 
-## How to Enable 2FA
+- You need access to your mobile device when signing in.
+- After entering your password, you are asked for a 6-digit verification code.
+- The code is generated by an authentication app on your phone.
+- You can choose **“Remember this device for 30 days”** to avoid entering a code on that device for the next 30 days.
 
-First, you need to download and install an authentication app. A few options are Google Authenticator, Duo Mobile, 1Password or Authy.
+## What You Need Before Enabling 2FA
 
-Then, you can turn on 2FA for your Hypernode Control Panel:
+You must install an authentication app on your mobile device. Common options include:
 
-1. Sign in to the Hypernode Control Panel.
-1. Hover over your username in the upper right corner.
-1. Click on Account settings.
-1. Click**Manage 2FA** to manage your 2FA settings.
-1. Click the **Activate 2FA**button and click on **Start now**.
-1. Add a new account in your authentication app. In most apps, you can do this by tapping the + icon.
-1. Scan the QR code by using your device's camera. If you prefer, you can choose to enter the code by hand.
-1. On Hypernode's 2FA configuration page, enter the 6-digit verification code that your authentication app generates.
-1. To finish, click **Confirm**.
+- Google Authenticator
+- Okta Verify
+- Duo Mobile
+- Authy
+- 1Password
 
-You'll receive an email when you enable 2FA and this will also be shown in the logs.
+Any app that supports time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) will work.

+
+## Disabling 2FA
+
+For security reasons, 2FA can no longer be disabled directly from the Control Panel.
+
+If you need to disable 2FA, please contact Hypernode Support at **support@hypernode.com**.
+
+## Backup Codes
+
+During setup, you receive a set of backup codes. These are important.
+
+- Each backup code can be used only once.
+- Backup codes allow you to sign in if you lose access to your phone or authentication app.
+- You can always find your backup codes on your **Account** page.
+
+We strongly recommend storing these codes somewhere safe and offline.
+
+## Security Notice
 
-You'll receive an email when you disable 2FA and this will also be shown in the logs.
+If you receive a verification code that you did not request, someone may be trying to access your account.
 
-## Troubleshooting
+In that case:
 
-### Backup Codes
 
-If you lose your phone or you've deleted your authentication app, you can use one of the backup codes to sign in. Each code can only be used once. Your backup codes were provided at the time you set up 2FA, but you can always find them on your Account page. We highly recommend you to save these codes somewhere safe.
+- Log in to your account immediately.
+- Change your password.
+- Contact Hypernode Support if you suspect unauthorized activity.
 
-If you receive a verification code you didn't request, there is a possibility that there's been an attempt to compromise your account. We recommend accessing your account and changing your password as soon as possible. If you lose access to your 2FA code generator, contact support@hypernode.com.
+If you lose access to your authentication app and do not have backup codes, contact **support@hypernode.com** for assistance.
