Personal account security

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of protection when you sign in or perform sensitive operations. Setting path: Click your avatar in the lower-left corner, then go to Personal settings > Security.

Verification methods

YCloud supports the following verification methods:
  • Authenticator App (recommended): Use an authenticator app, such as Google Authenticator, to generate time-based one-time codes. We recommend using this method whenever possible because it does not depend on the delivery of an SMS or email.
  • SMS / Email OTP: Receive a one-time password through the phone number or email address registered to your account.
After you enable an authenticator app, store the recovery codes in a secure location. You can use a recovery code to access your account if you lose access to the authenticator app. Recovery codes can also be regenerated from the Security page.

Recent and trusted devices

The Security page records devices that have recently signed in to your account. The device list includes information such as the device type, browser, IP address, and last active time. Review this list regularly. If you find a device or sign-in activity that you do not recognize, remove the device promptly and update your account password.
Trusted devices may skip multi-factor authentication. Only keep devices that you recognize and control.
