Reddit's 2FA is supported across desktop, mobile, and third-party applications, but requires an authenticator app which supports the TOTP protocol - such as Google Authenticator and Authy - to implement. With every new sign-in attempt, a six-digit verification code will be sent to the user's mobile devices. Users that opt-in for 2FA will need to pass an additional step in authentication when they log in. Now that bugs have been ironed out, the feature is ready for the general population. Reddit has been slowly rolling out the feature through beta testers, moderators, and third-party app developers to make sure the 2FA system works across all platforms. We know that relying purely on passwords is not enough to keep our accounts secure - especially as brute-force attacks on the common phrases and easy-to-remember combinations we use are easy to crack - and so 2FA is now on the way to becoming standard practice. On Wednesday, the web content aggregation platform acknowledged that two-factor authentication (2FA) is a feature that users have requested for a long time.ĢFA facilitates additional layers of security for online accounts, usually by connecting accounts to a mobile device and delivering one-time codes for additional authentication.
