To keep your Twilio account secure, enable two-factor authentication (2FA). This page explains how Twilio 2FA works, which methods Twilio supports, and how to protect and recover your account.

An authenticator app (TOTP) is the sweet spot: free, offline, and not vulnerable to SIM-swap attacks like SMS.
