How to enable 2FA on F-Secure

← F-Secure overview Supported

F-Secure lets you secure your account with an authenticator app. With 2FA on, each login needs a fresh 6-digit code, keeping your F-Secure account safe even if your password leaks.

Step-by-step setup

1
Sign in to F-Secure and open your F-Secure account security settings.
2
Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.
Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.
3
Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.
Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code F-Secure displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.
4
Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your F-Secure account.
5
Save your backup codes.
Store the recovery codes F-Secure gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.

Menu names on F-Secure can change — the official F-Secure 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
