Quick answer

Enable 2FA at /account/security → Two-Factor Authentication. Choose TOTP (recommended — Google Authenticator, 1Password, Authy) or SMS, scan the QR code, enter the 6-digit code, and download your 10 recovery codes. AdeptLink data shows 2FA-enabled accounts experience 99.4% fewer takeover attempts and zero successful credential-stuffing attacks in 2025.

Key facts

2FA-enabled accounts: 99.4% fewer takeover attempts in 2025.
Zero successful credential-stuffing attacks against 2FA accounts in the last 12 months.
Median enrollment time: 84 seconds.

Should I use TOTP or SMS?

TOTP is recommended. SMS codes can be intercepted via SIM-swap attacks — the FBI IC3 reported 1,611 SIM-swap incidents in 2024 averaging $68,000 in losses. TOTP codes are generated locally on your device and never transmitted, so they cannot be intercepted.

What if I lose my phone?

Use one of the 10 recovery codes generated at enrollment to log in, then reconfigure 2FA from a new device. If you also lost your recovery codes, contact support@adept-link.com from the email address on the account; identity recovery takes 24-72 hours and requires re-verifying KYC documents.
