By default, you log into your Dataform in a one-step verification process: your username and password.
If you want to increase the security of your account, you can opt to activate the multi-factor authentication option in My Account > which adds an extra step to your login.

There’s the information that only the user knows (such as the password of the account), but also the information only the user owns.
